Slovak hockey player Juraj Slafkovský is still diligently practicing shooting. This time, a video from journalist Eric Engels flooded social networks. The native of Košice practiced shooting with a special trainer for this activity even 35 minutes after training.
He is coach Glen Tucker, nicknamed Dr. Shot – that is, Doctor Strela. He came to the Montreal Canadiens only in December.
What has he become most famous for recently? He is behind the success of David Pastrňák, one of the best scorers in the entire NHL.
“He was probably one of the worst scorers I had in Boston and now he’s scoring a lot of goals. I don’t mean it in any bad way,” Tucker said with a laugh for The Athletic in 2019. In Boston, he didn’t only work with Pastrňák, but also helped Zden Char improve his shooting.
How did he help Chara? “He had a great impact, brave opponents blocked so many shots for him. After working with Tucker Chara, he chose a faster and more accurate shot,” wrote The Athletic.
