In a press conference after the game, St-Louis took a long time to talk about Slafkovsky and to praise the work of the young Slovakian.
The way he was talking, and especially with the injuries to Joel Armia and Mike Hoffman, it really looks like Slafkovsky will, at the very least, start the new season with the Montreal Canadiens.
Kent Hughes is likely to confirm this tomorrow.
Clearly, St. Louis has really enjoyed the recent games of its first overall pick.
Compelling comments that suggest the kid will start the season in Montreal (at least for his nine games).
Stay tuned! For details and full comments from Martin St-Louis :
