The character is appreciated overseas, Slafkovský has it. It’s just fantastic, says scout – SlovakNHL.sk

Former Maple Leafs striker Peter Ihnačák currently works in the NHL as a Washington Capitals scout. He has a great overview of young hopes and knows that Juraj Slafkovský will finish quite high in this year’s draft. However, he does not say a specific tip. “I am forbidden to talk about places in the rankings, but Juraj shows that he is an excellent hockey player. All scouts know about him and his qualities. He’s just a fantastic player. It will definitely be very high, “Ihnačák told Nový Čas. According to Ihnačák, it is good that the talents from the Tatras also show the character and effort to fight for the team victory, which they appreciate overseas. According to him, Slafkovský, who also shone at the Beijing Olympics, has it all in him at the age of 18. “She has everything. He has talent, great figure and character. You see it in matches, when he has no problem standing up for a smaller teammate, he honestly defends and in all matches he gives 100 percent. Whether he wins or loses, he is a leader who is not afraid to take responsibility, “Ihnačák remarked. As for the mentioned character, a player who has a 64-year-old native from Poprad directly in his organization – defender Martin Fehérváry – could also be a prime example. “Martin is an incredible warrior. There’s that character too! Such a player then goes to the hall every day with a passion for training, saying that he wants to constantly improve and wants to achieve something. It is a pleasure to look at him, “said Ihnačák.
