It seems like their analysis was a year behind. Slaf was already playing very well, even if the points weren't necessarily following. Here's a reminder of their comments.
"Sportsnet:
- «What about moving Juraj Slafkovsky down the lineup on the 4th line?»
- «We'll wait & see where he'd shuffled into the lineup tonight.»

It's a sweet revenge for the Slovak, who, without even having to reply with his mouth, answers through the barrels of his cannons.
