The Montreal Canadiens selected power-forward Juraj Slafkovsky with the first overall selection in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft at their home arena, Bell Centre. The crowd went wild with the announcement and Slafkovsky was soaking it all in.
With the pick, the youngster became the first Slovakian to ever be selected first overall at the NHL draft. After, he got a very special message from a Slovak legend himself, former Boston Bruins captain Zdeno Chara.
