Slafkovsky and Mesar received a request from the Canadiens
Montreal Canadiens' young prospect Filip Mesar explained why he and his compatriot Juraj Slafkovsky were not on the list of players invited to Slovakia's World Junior Hockey Championship next month.
« The Canadians want me to prepare well for the upcoming season and not have any risk of injury. They told me I could make my own decision, but they don't want me to go. I'm still thinking about it, but I accept what they told me." -Filip Mesar
The Canadian made a request to the two youngsters: not to participate in the tournament. All this is in order to avoid an unnecessary injury, especially in the case of Slafkovsky, who should start the season in Montreal.
