Eligible for the next National League draft to be held in Montreal on July 7 and 8, the Slovak is having a most impressive tournament against adults.
Against Denmark, Slafkovsky collected his third goal and ninth point of the competition in seven games in a 7-1 victory.
In the history of the World Championship, only one player under the age of 18 has been more productive: Finland’s Patrik Laine in 2016, who had amassed 12 points.
Slafkovsky is the highest-ranked player on NHL Central Scouting’s final European roster.
If the Montreal Canadiens draft Shane Wright as expected in the first place, it is very likely that the Jersey Devils claim this big power forward.
