Absolutely not
It's plausible… but yeah not to realistically
hey lego can u tell me your opinion on my comment on your last video, keep up the good work.
Bedard will have more points, but Slaf will win a cup first. Slaf has the whole package, skill, size, and vision. Bedard lacks the size, so he will need some help in the playoffs.
slaf was a kid when he got to nhl. now he finally realized what erection is for and what he can do with his body. like get in front of the net or win puck battles. hes gonna be amazing
slafgoatsky
That title is absolutely wild
I mean… If hes progressing the way he is and keeps going on this onslaught then why not????
R/Habs with the disgusting logo
14 more pts this season and he ties Jumbo Joe's numbers in his first 2 seasons, very do-able
Utter nonsense.
That’s a horrible take Slav is no where near bedard or Hughes
The title in the thumbnail is insane!!
Don't think he'll be better than Bedard, but could Slaf be Rantanen 2.0? It's completely possible
happy birthday lane hutson
Slafkovsky won’t be better than Hughes or Bedard but he’ll be the best player of the 2022 draft and maybe he can rack up 60-75 points per season.
People, be aware that at the age of 18, Juraj left to live almost halfway across the globe from his family to a city where he did not know the main language, had no home or friends, and overnight became a rock star from whom almost everyone expects miracles. He had to get used not only to a smaller ice rink and a different style of hockey, but also to the fact that tickets for his events were bought by people who expected a local rock star who they know everything about, and he has a concert 2-3 times a week and every time he has to give a satisfactory experience, that's a lot of pressure, I personally wanted him to go to a team where he would have space to grow, but maybe it's a good thing in that even if he didn't score, he wanted to be a contribution to the team and learned to better use different aspects of his game, such as defense, taking the puck, playing with his body… he can still improve in his positional play when defending, where he sometimes covers the space that is already covered by his teammate and does not try to take the puck away from the opponent. he has already shown that he is talented in many things, but for me it is much more important that he showed himself as a training worker with a great desire to constantly improve. he loves this game. Habs fans, if you have him there, support him ❤under all conditions, otherwise you are going against your club

Slaf is the next jagr.
Slav is going to be a great player, I always knew that. BUT Hughes and Bedard are game breakers and centers. Conversation over.
I didn't think it at first but lately I think Slaf has Pastrnak potential.
Lets not forget jack hughes was considered a massive bust at that time in his career 😂
Slag could make 100 points when he is 22 years.
When Slaf wasn't producing earlier on, I was still hanging loose, smiling and chuckling from time to time. I think if Marty saw that he was tense and nervous he would have pulled him out. The emotional environment with this group of players and staff seems to be healthy for development. You can tell that Claude Ruel (RIP) or Jacques Lemaire is not calling the cadence now!
