Check out one of the very first videos that started circulating earlier today:
Why are we showing you this? Because, unfortunately, many supporters have used this ordinary 43-second Slafkovsky clip to already proclaim him a "flop". It's pretty incredible when you think about it.
At least the kid clearly seems to have the character to face the music, but we need to calm down. (That's the point of the article and the intervention)
Well said! It's true that Slafkovsky had a pretty rough first day, by his own admission, he's disappointed with that first day, but let's calm down.
He continued:
Clearly, the kid has the right attitude, and that's what it takes, especially with all the "experts" on the web who overanalyze the few video clips that come through. Instead of criticizing that, Slafkovsky loves it and says it's always been a dream for him to play in such an intense and passionate market.
So yes, Slafkovsky had a tough first day and he knows it, but can we give him more than a week before we say it's a bad choice. One thing is for sure, if he wasn't particularly impressive on the ice, he was (once again) very impressive off the ice.
