• Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Manages assist in loss

  17H ago • By RotoWire

  Slafkovsky notched an assist in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Lightning. Slafkovsky was good in January with eight points over 14 outings, but he turned cold to begin February on a four-game drought. He was able to snap the slump Sunday when he helped out on a Christian Dvorak tally in the second period. Slafkovsky is up to 30 points, 71 shots on net, 121 hits and a minus-10 rating over 53 appearances. He is on pace to fall short of the 20-goal and 50-point marks he achieved in 2023-24, making this a disappointing third campaign for the No. 1 pick from 2022.

  Slafkovsky scored a goal on one shot, blocked two shots and registered a hit in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Jets.

It was the fourth goal in the last seven outings for Slafkovsky, who also has two helpers during his scoring binge. The 20-year-old winger still has some work to do to match the 20 goals he scored last season; Slafkovsky has eight tallies through 47 games.

  Slafkovsky scored a goal on three shots, blocked one shot and doled out three hits in Thursday's 3-1 win over Dallas. A mere 47 seconds after Dallas took an early 1-0 lead, Slafkovsky knotted the game, finishing a pretty feed from Cole Caufield. The tally snapped a 10-game goal drought for the 20-year-old Slovak forward, who is well off the goal-scoring pace he set in 2023-24. Slafkovsky has five goals (8.2 shooting percentage) through 41 outings in 2024-25 after potting 20 (13.2 percent) in 82 games last season.
