The Montreal Canadiens are being completely ridiculed online, and fans are furious
The Montreal Canadiens selected Juraj Slafkovsky with the first overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft. The organization mentioned that he is a long-term project and is, in their opinion, the player with the highest ceiling in a few years.
Slafkovsky's start to the season has been disappointing, for sure, but it's important not to give up on a 19-year-old. He shows promise, but lacks confidence and still needs to adjust to the speed of the game.
On the other hand, the 3rd overall pick, Logan Cooley, is doing quite well these days. The rookie has eight points in 10 games, but it's well known that a good start doesn't guarantee a successful career.
Perhaps this should be reminded to the Coyotes, who seem to be getting ahead of themselves in this matter. Following their victory on Thursday night, which included a disallowed goal for the Canadiens due to an offside call, they posted a message to taunt the Canadiens and Slafkovsky. This post could come back to haunt them in a few years.
Fans are furious on social media and are defending Slafkovsky. Furthermore, many are reminding the Coyotes of all the troubles they have had and continue to have. Let's just say that if there is one organization not equipped to taunt others, it's them.
