Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: On scoresheet again
Slafkovsky had an assist, one shot on net, one hit and four PIM in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.
Slafkovsky and Brendan Gallagher teamed up behind the New York goal to set up a Mike Matheson tally that tied the game at one goal apiece. The assist gave Slafkovsky points in two straight games; the forward snapped a 14-game goal-less run in Montreal's previous game. He was also involved in a melee late in the second period, picking up two roughing penalties among the seven penalties assessed to both teams. Slafkovsky is up to 14 points (just two goals), 24 shots, 53 hits, 17 blocks, 10 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 20 outings.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Two-point night in win
Slafkovsky scored a goal on one shot, had a power-play assist, recorded one block and meted out one hit in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
Slafkovsky had a much-needed effort, snapping a 14-game goal-less drought -- just his second goal of the season -- and sending Cole Caufield in on a breakaway with a pretty pass off the boards. Slafkovsky hadn't been on the scoresheet in five games and made some poor decisions recently that prompted shifts on the fourth line in each of the previous two games. The 20-year-old winger was given just 12 shifts and a season-low 11:29 TOI in Tuesday's overtime loss to Utah. However, head coach Martin St. Louis juggled the lines Wednesday, and Slafkovsky was back to getting top-six shifts. He should remain there Saturday, when the Canadiens are on the road against the Rangers.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Slips to fourth line
Slafkovsky had four hits with a minus-4 rating in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
It was a tough night for Slafkovsky, who extended a goal-less streak to 13 games. A poor decision in the second period led directly to a 2-on-1 rush that resulted in Vegas' third goal. It was similar to the decision he made a week ago that got him benched for a stretch against the Blue Jackets. Slafkovsky and Kirby Dach -- whose careless turnover in his own end led to Vegas' second goal -- were both pulling shifts on the fourth line in the third period.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Rebounds from benching
Slafkovsky had two shots, one block and one hit in Monday's 3-0 win over Edmonton.
Slafkovsky's name was not on the scoresheet, but he was the primary reason for Montreal's first goal. Late in the second period, he intercepted a pass in his own zone, which initiated a rush. Then, his dogged forecheck behind the net prompted another Edmonton turnover, leading to Brendan Gallagher's tip-in goal to give the Canadiens a 1-0 lead. It was a nice moment for the 20-year-old Slafkovsky, who was benched for a 10-minute stretch between the second and third periods of Saturday's win over the Blue Jackets.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Collects three assists Monday
Slafkovsky had three assists, including one on the power play, in a 7-5 victory against Buffalo on Monday.
Slafkovsky had the primary helper on two second-period goals by Nick Suzuki before setting up Cole Caufield's game-winning power-play tally in the third frame. The 20-year-old Slafkovsky didn't have a point in three games before Monday's breakout performance, and he logged a season-low 12:50 of ice time in Saturday's loss to Toronto. His performance in Monday's win should help him get back on track, especially if he stays on the top line.

Slafkovsky (head) practiced Monday after leaving Saturday's 3-1 loss to Pittsburgh early, Patrick Friolet of RDS reports.
Following Monday's on-ice session, Slafkovsky told reporters he underwent concussion protocol and feels fine, per Canadiens beat reporter Priyanta Emrith. The 20-year-old Slafkovsky should be in the lineup for Tuesday's matchup against Calgary. He has one goal, seven assists, 14 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and 31 hits through nine appearances this season. Barring a setback, he will play on the second line and see time on the top power-play unit versus the Flames.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Leaves game late
Slafkovsky was removed from Saturday's game against the Penguins late in the third period after taking a shot to the head, Erik Leijon of the Montreal Gazette reports.
The hit delivered by Pittsburgh's Noel Acciari occurred with just over three minutes left, as seen on SportsNet, and Slafkovsky's status is unclear. The incident led to Montreal seeking retribution, with Arber Xhekaj taking a run at Acciari as the horn sounded to end the game. Slafkovsky will have a couple of days to get right before Montreal hosts Calgary on Tuesday.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Logs assist in return
Slafkovsky had an assist, two shots and four hits in Tuesday's 8-2 loss to Seattle.
Slafkovsky returned from an upper-body injury that cost him three games. Instead of reuniting with Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield on the top line, head coach Martin St. Louis left Kirby Dach on the first line and had Slafkovsky skate on the second line. That lasted all of one period, after which Montreal was down, 4-1. Slafkovsky rejoined his usual linemates from the second period on. The helper was Slafkovsky's sixth in seven outings.

Slafkovsky (upper body) will return to the lineup Tuesday versus Seattle, per Kenzie Lalonde of TSN.
Despite reports suggesting otherwise, Slafkovsky clarified Tuesday morning that his injury was not a shoulder problem. He will return to a top-six role and should see power-play time. Slafkovsky has collected one goal, five assists, seven shots on net, 22 hits and nine blocked shots through six outings this campaign. Michael Pezzetta will be a healthy scratch versus the Kraken to make room for Slafkovsky's return to the lineup.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Out at least one week
Slafkovsky (shoulder) will be re-evaluated in a week, the Canadiens announced Tuesday.
Slafkovsky was hurt during Friday's practice. He still managed to play Saturday, but it seems he'll require some time on the shelf to recover. That interrupts his fantastic start to the campaign -- Slafkovsky has a goal and six points in six appearances in 2024-25. His absence might lead to Brendan Gallagher moving up to a top-six role.

Head coach Martin St. Louis said Monday that Slafkovsky's (shoulder) status for Tuesday's game against the Rangers is uncertain, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.
Slafkovsky sustained a shoulder injury during Friday's practice session but was able to suit up for Saturday's game against the Islanders. He was effective, tallying two assists in the shootout loss, but it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to dress for Tuesday's home game.

Slafkovsky notched two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Islanders.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Expected to play Saturday
Slafkovsky (shoulder) took line rushes in his normal first-line spot and is expected to play versus the Islanders on Saturday, Guillaume Lefrancois of La Presse reports.
Slafkovsky was hurt in Friday's practice but made the trip to New York. It doesn't appear the 20-year-old winger will miss any time. He has four points through five appearances, so fantasy managers should have him active if they normally would.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Injured at practice Friday
Slafkovsky left practice Friday after injuring his left shoulder, according to Patrick Friolet of RDS.ca.
Slafkovsky is off to a good start in 2024-25, scoring once and adding three assists in five appearances. He is playing on the top line, alongside Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki, as well as averaging 4:45 of ice time on the top power play. Should Slafkovsky be unavailable for Saturday's game against the Islanders, look for Joel Armia or Alex Newhook to move up to the first line.

Canadiens' Juraj Slafkovsky: Scores on power play
Slafkovsky scored a power-play goal, had three shots on net and doled out three hits in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Penguins.
Slafkovsky redirected a pretty pass from Nick Suzuki early in the second period that tied the game at 2-2. The tally was his first of the season and second power-play point. The power play was an Achilles' heel for the Canadiens last season, and they went 0-for-30 in the preseason, but the club has power-play tallied in all four games thus far in 2024-25. Slafkovsky has points in three of the first four contests and is up to 13 hits.
