Montreal Canadiens are carving their own path for the development of top prospect Juraj Slafkovsky. Patrick Williams joins us to outline successes in the AHL.
The media focus this past week remained on Canadiens prospect Juraj Slafkovsky. And why wouldn't it?
For the Montreal rebuild to be successful, top prospects collected while the team is at the bottom of the standings must deliver. While fans are willing to be patient, they would like to start seeing progress from the Canadiens' first overall pick from the 2022 NHL Entry Draft.
Two development paths are open for the Canadiens and Slafkovsky. Currently they are choosing to keep him in the NHL. Patrick Williams from NHL.com outlines why the AHL is the premier development league of choice for NHL teams and details who has used their time in the league successfully.
This is the focus of this week's episode of Canadiens Connection podcast.
In addition, we provide an injury update with Rafael Harvey-Pinard returning to the lineup. And we outline the week that was for Habs prospects. We conclude the show with comments, texts, and emails from you, our loyal Canadiens Connection listeners.
