Major: Juraj Slafkovsky is compared to a 50-goal scorer
Juraj Slafkovsky has experienced extraordinary progress in recent months and continues on his path at the World Championship.
The first overall pick in 2023 is proving to everyone that he can be part of the elite one day, as evidenced by his 20 goals and 50 points in just his second season.
A colossus, fast, solid, with excellent game vision and a blistering shot, Juraj has all the assets to become a star, and he is already one in Montreal.
Moreover, Canadiens legend Guy Carbonneau has compared him to Chris Kreider.
According to Guy, Juraj has the size, speed, and shot to dominate, in addition to being as effective as Kreider in front of the opposing net.
Furthermore, he mentions that Juraj already has better game vision, which gives him an advantage.
Let's not get carried away; Slaf may never score 50 goals, or even 30, but he will undoubtedly be a very good winger in the NHL with his strengths.
He has already received the title of player of the game for his team, Slovakia. He is a star there.
To think he just turned 20! This is very encouraging for the future!
