Juraj Slafkovsky returned to his country for an amazing reason, and it's fascinating!
BY MARCO MARCH 16, 2023 (2:58 PM)
According to several sources, the Canadiens' rookie forward left the organization's entourage a few days ago, and for an absolutely fascinating reason!
He had the firm intention to finish high school, and that's what he went to do in Slovakia, as this picture of him shows:
According to Refresher News, the Tricolor's number 20 passed his Slovak writing and literature exams. He also took an English and math test. This fulfills a promise he made to his parents.
A man of his word this Juraj!
I have to say that it's an incredible scenario, a professional player and first choice overall, who goes back to school to finish his high school studies, it's really amazing!
