Speaking on LCN this morning, Michel Bergeron took the opportunity to talk about the Canadiens' first pick in the last draft, Juraj Slafkovsky. He also made some somewhat controversial comments about the upcoming season with the Tricolore.

Getting back to Slafkovsky, Bergy believes that he should be allowed to play and stop scrutinizing him. The former coach would start Juraj in Montreal, but on a fourth line with Rem Pitlick and Jake Evans, without touching the power play and without the pressure of having to produce on a first line.
His comments make a lot of sense, as the young man must be under a lot of pressure right now. You can listen to the full segment below.
