report from EP draft guide

Slafkovský brings a lot more to the table than just brute force, though. What makes him a unique prospect is how he turns those extended possession sequences into legitimate scoring chances. Sometimes, it's a drive to the net-front for a chance of his own; other times, he'll handle his way into a passing opportunity and send the puck to his linemate to finish the job. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
