Juraj Slafkovsky seemed bothered by a question from a journalist today.
Marc-Olivier CookThat said, it’s frustrating to pay a huge amount to watch the Canadiens get beaten by another team. That’s what happened yesterday, and it has also happened a few times since the start of the season.
After today’s practice, a journalist asked Juraj Slafkovsky if he would be willing to pay hundreds of dollars to attend a Habs game.
Yeah, I would pay. We are young players, and there is still a lot ahead of us. It doesn’t change anything. – Juraj Slafkovsky
Without saying he responded with attitude, you can see on his face that the journalist’s question slightly bothered Slaf.
And that’s okay too:
Interesting exchange between Slaf and a reporter on if he would spend hundreds of dollars to watch this team play. Tough but fair question, and I think Slaf handled himself well here too.

Journalists are there to ask more “complicated” questions sometimes, and that was one of them.
That said, I believe Slaf answered the question well even if he is a bit wrong in saying that “it doesn’t change anything.”
Watching the Canadiens lose like they did last night… It doesn’t make you want to pay $300 for an evening when all fans want to see the team win.
I’d like to see him be that confident on the ice every game, but oh well.
That’s another discussion, though…
