Juraj Slafkovsky scored a goal on five shots, registered eight hits, and picked up a fighting major in Saturday’s 5-2 victory over Ottawa. The 20-year-old provided an insurance tally in the second period before dropping the gloves with Ridly Greig in the third.
Fantasy Impact:
Slafkovsky showcased his power-forward potential in a well-rounded performance. He had just one assist in his previous six outings before the 4 Nations Face-Off break but appeared re-energized following the time off. With nine goals, 31 points, 76 shots, and 129 hits through 54 games, his blend of physicality and secondary scoring makes him an intriguing fantasy option in deeper leagues, particularly those rewarding hits and PIM.
