After the second preseason game of the Montreal Canadiens and first overall pick Juraj Slafkovsky, analyst François Gagnon gave his opinion on the performance of the youngster.

A constructive criticism:

He reminds us to be patient, but Gagnon didn't necessarily like Slafkovsky's performance against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

He even talks about an inferior performance to the one on Monday night. The involvement was not there, and the skate was not there either, according to Gagnon.

This is the downside he wanted to bring, but he is well aware that we should not "leave in fear".
