Juraj Slafkovsky shows emotion as leader of Slovakia and we love it

Indeed, the Montreal team's number 20 gave the referees a piece of his mind while he was in the penalty box, much to the delight of the fans who tried to decode his words!

Juraj Slafkovsky complains about the quality of the beds

It must be said that Slafkovsky's bad mood started well before this incident and the game. He strongly complained about the quality of the beds at his hotel, which is located in Ostravar, where Slovakia plays its round-robin matches.

"My back hurts because of the hotel bed," he confessed, as quoted by a Slovak media outlet. "I would have preferred that we stay somewhere further from the arena in something better. Unfortunately, it's not my decision." - Juraj Slafkovsky

Slafkovsky was not just intense on the penalty bench. It makes you wonder whether he is scolding his teammates or the officials here...

We love it!
