The Habs Keep Moving On - 
from Kristen Shilton of ESPN,Montreal has mastered the art of resiliency. Or, as the Canadiens call it: bouncing forward.It's a turn of phrase Juraj Slafkovsky used nearly three years ago that has become Montreal's mantra during a roller-coaster postseason run through back-to-back seven-game series (without consecutive losses) to reach the Eastern Conference finals against Carolina.Slafkovsky uttered the phrase while mired in a tough professional stretch. As a 19-year-old, he had just completed his 50th NHL game, and (finally) scored his first goal of the 2023-24 season in a 6-3 loss to the St. Louis Blues. There was talk going into that matchup that coach Martin St. Louis should have moved Slafkovsky down the lineup; instead, St. Louis put Slafkovsky on the team's top line with Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki.The coach's decision worked -- Slafkovsky gained confidence from the goal, and coined the expression that has had unexpectedly long

Bottom Six Minutes: Juraj Slafkovsky goes beast mode - 
If you’re a Habs fan, there was a lot to like in the Montreal Canadiens’ 6-2 dismantling of the Carolina Hurricanes in game one of the Eastern Conference final. It wasn’t without its moments that reminded everyone why the Hurricanes have been touted as Stanley Cup favourites, but the Habs figured out how to use the aggression of Carolina against them. Their top line reminded everyone what they’re capable of at five-on-five, and they allowed just a single shot against in a third period they entered nursing the dreaded two-goal lead. A lot to like, yes, but perhaps nothing more than the performance of Juraj Slafkovsky, who played arguably his best game of the playoffs.
