JURAJ SLAFKOVSKY EMERGING AS STUD POWER FORWARD | MTL, SJS & BUF 2025 Draft Options

Author: Locked On Podcast Network, Sebastian High, Hadi Kalakeche March 16, 2025 Duration: 26:22

In this episode, we highlight the strong performances of Juraj Slafkovsky, Collin Graf (SJS), & Zach Benson (BUF) and analyze their respective teams' 2025 1st round options. First we dig into Slafkovsky's torrid form, not just scoring but exploring his powerforward role with increased physicality. We also see what we can learn from Slafkovsky's progression regarding the development of elite young powerforwards like Adam Fantilli, Cayden Lindstrom, and Roger McQueen before pondering the Habs' 1st round options. Next we highlight Collin Graf of the San Jose Sharks who has excelled since his call-up and look at why Matthew Schaefer would be a perfect fit in California. Finally, we check-in with Zach Benson who continues to play an energetic and highly intelligent brand of hockey and cross our fingers that the Sabres land Michael Misa as he would stabilize the forward core in key ways.
