Three Questions to Ask About the Canadiens’ Top 6

This summer, the Canadiens didn’t make any moves. You already knew that.

Since the Canadiens haven't added anyone and Michael Hage won't be arriving in town for the start of next season, the solutions lie within the organization.

But questions remain. Here are three of them.

Will Juraj Slafkovsky lead his line?

Last year, we saw that Slaf was able to succeed alongside Nick Suzuki and Cole Caufield. But more importantly, we saw that the Slovakian was capable of taking control of his line.

When he was on the second line, he took charge.

So the question arises: Will the Canadiens prefer to have him with their two proven performers? Would Martin St-Louis prefer to see him take charge of his own line again?

The answer to that question can change often. But the guys from The Sick Podcast (Matt Ohayon and Shayne Gaumond) are right: Slaf isn't guaranteed a spot on the top line.
