NHL draft broadcaster: According to them, Slovakia’s greatest hope is the Finns! – Sports

BRATISLAVA – The Canadian periodical Sportsnet came up with a new ranking of young hopes ahead of the upcoming NHL 2022 draft.

The Canadian portal ranked the Slovak in the ninth place in its ranking as the greatest SLOVAK hope in the upcoming draft, but the commentary on Juraj Slafkovsky’s address is striking: “He scored his first goal in Liige, Finland at the beginning of the month. FINLAND will rely on him at the World Junior Championships.”

Blows my mind. I’m not trying to be an A-hole but Sportsnet is the national rights holder and will broadcast the # 2022NHLDraft.

The draft broadcaster described the Slovak talent as Fína

The well-known SN television portal, which will even broadcast the aforementioned draft NHL 2022, has significantly reduced its credit and reputation. Among other young Slovaks, he placed Šimon Nemc in twelfth place and Filip Mešár in 14th place, which completely ended the Slovak trio in the top 15.

There have been some concerns about his scoring, but Shane Wright continues to lead Sam Cosentino’s prospect rankings ahead of the 2022 NHL Draft.
