Montreal defeated Chicago, Slafkovský didn't score

Montreal Canadiens won a night NHL game at the Chicago Blackhawks' rink 4:1. They played the game without captain Nick Suzuki, who was missing from the team for the first time in more than five years. Juraj Slafkovský played on the first forward line but did not register a point. sme.sk ↗

The Slovak forward played 16 minutes and three seconds, his lowest ice time this season. He fired three shots on goal and posted a minus-one rating in the plus-minus statistic. He was also sent to the penalty box twice. teraz.sk ↗

Slafkovský took the ice despite previous concerns regarding a minor training injury. His slip-up during the game was exploited by Connor Bedard, who was involved in Chicago's scoring play. However, Montreal held on to the lead and ultimately decided the game with a convincing victory. sport.sk ↗

After the match, Bedard said that Chicago, in his view, delivered a better performance, but he called the result frustrating. The Canadiens thus managed to get through their first game without their captain and continue the season with a question mark over how the team will cope with his absence in upcoming games. sport.sk ↗
