We have heard regularly from the young striker over the last few months Juraj Slafkovsky and its dazzling development, and for good reason.

The 20-year-old forward’s season literally culminated in the April 9 game against the Philadelphia Flyers, when he scored the first hat trick of his young career and added three goals in the Habs’ stunning 9-3 victory.

Then, during the final game of the season against the Detroit Red Wings, Slafkovsky secured a hefty $250,000 bonus after scoring his 20th goal of the season.

In the end, the first overall pick of the 2022 NHL Draft will have scored 20 goals and 30 assists for a total of 50 points in 82 games.

However, as part of the show Laraque and Gonzalez presented on the airwaves of BPM SportsGeorges and Gonzo looked back on Slafkovsky’s season and highlighted his significant commitment to the Canadian while comparing him to the young New York Rangers forward. Alexis Lafreniere.

During this discussion, the two hosts poll the audience to find out what choice they would make between the two young players if they had to build a team.

The choice is yours, you can only choose one for your team. Who do you choose between Alexis Lafrenière and Juraj Slafkovsky? Personally, I think Lafrenière will score more points in the NHL… he’ll probably be a more productive guy, but you need a guy like Slaf on your team.

According to the two hosts, Lafrenière, with almost 300 games played in the NHL, proves that he should become the most prolific scorer between the two men.

However, they insist that Slafkovsky will be crucial for the Canadian as his presence cannot be bought over the years.

If you had to make a National Hockey League team, what would you choose between Alexis Lafrenière and Juraj Slafkovsky?
