Juraj Slafkovsky Returns To Action Tuesday
1 min agoMontreal Canadiens winger Juraj Slafkovsky (upper body) will be back in action against Seattle on Tuesday. Slafkovsky has been out for three games with an upper-body injury. It was initially reported that Slafkovsky had hurt his shoulder, but he denied this Tuesday morning, calling his upper-body ailment simply a "weird injury." The 20-year-old has had a productive start to the campaign, averaging a point per contest in six outings. He sits on one goal and five assists with seven shots. Despite Slafkovsky's return, Kirby Dach will maintain a top-line role versus the Kraken. Slafkovsky will join Alex Newhook and Joel Armia on the second line.
