Cole Caufield, Nick Suzuki, and Juraj Slafkovsky at the top: Martin St-Louis speaks out
Martin St-Louis' best trio last year was undoubtedly made up of Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Juraj Slafkovsky, and it will be again this year.
Barring a disaster, the three forwards complement each other so well, and they continue to progress together, which is very encouraging.
Without saying they belong to the elite yet, I believe they can become a very good line in the NHL. If we listen to Cole Caufield, they can become one of the best in the league.
That's what number 13 mentioned to Anthony Martineau on Thursday, and Martin St-Louis commented on it by saying what it will take to get there.
- Martin St-Louis
This shows that the coach believes it too. He believes that his current first line has what it takes to become an elite trio in the NHL, but they will need to keep working hard.
Confidence is key. When we watch the three play together, they have everything needed for success: intelligence, vision, finesse, toughness, speed, and a lot of talent.
We must not forget that the oldest of the three is Nick Suzuki, and he's only 25. Cole Caufield is 23, and Juraj Slafkovsky is 20. They are going to be very good for a long time!
