In a press conference after last night's game against the Columbus Blue Jackets, Juraj Slafkovsky commented on a decision made by Martin St-Louis.
As you already know, we reported earlier that Martin St-Louis made a significant change before the game in Columbus.
Juraj Slafkovsky was placed on a line with Ivan Demidov and Oliver Kapanen, while Zachary Bolduc was moved to the top line with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield.
After the game, Slafkovsky was asked to comment on that change, especially since he showed some good things with the young Demidov.

The young forward didn't want to show a preference between playing with Suzuki/Caufield or with Kapanen/Demidov.
Juraj Slafkovsky tonight on playing alongside Oliver Kapanen & Ivan Demidov:
"It's up to Marty, what he's gonna do, how he's gonna play us. It's good to know that we have a good chemistry between each other. We're skilled enough guys that we can play with anyone."

The ball is now in Martin St-Louis' court!
And if it were your decision, would you give Slafkovsky more ice time with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield, or with Oliver Kapanen and Ivan Demidov?
Juraj Slafkovsky, 21, has 9 points in 19 games this season, including 6 goals, with a +6 rating.
He's not having a bad start to the season, far from it, but he's still taking some time to truly hit the next level (in my humble opinion).
