The intensity level is rising within the Montreal Canadiens as they push for an NHL playoff spot, and it’s showing in their practices.
We got a clear example of that today when things got a little heated between Patrik Laine and Juraj Slafkovsky during a specific drill.
Personally, I loved seeing this, it simply shows that the Habs players are competitive.
We want emotion!
Check out the detailed summary from Félix Forget (DansLesCoulisses):
“The cameras of TVA Sports captured footage showing that things got heated between Patrik Laine and Juraj Slafkovsky.
Essentially, Slafkovsky and Laine were participating in a puck retrieval drill.. and the Slovak gave it his all, so much so that Laine fell and damaged his skate blade.
And he was definitely not happy about it.”
The video is included in the article below.
One thing is for sure, Laine showed some fire.
There’s no need to make a big deal out of this, but we’re simply placing it in the category of notable moments from today’s practice.
Now, it’s up to Laine and Slafkovsky to channel this intensity tomorrow night against the Edmonton Oilers.
“Laine skated back to the bench, grumbling and slamming his stick against the boards.
Clearly uncomfortable, Slafkovsky kept his distance.
He tried to apologize to Laine once he returned to the ice. But he might as well have been talking to a wall, it wouldn’t have made a difference.”

More details to come, but we assume everything has already been perfectly settled between the two Canadiens players.
