Slovak ice hockey player Juraj Slafkovský showed a great performance in the overseas NHL in the match of his Montreal on the Tampa Bay Lightning ice.
Although the Canadiens were already losing 0:3 after two periods, the native of Košice had a big part in the fact that the Canadian club finally got at least one point.
He shone for the first time in the 42nd minute, when he found the Russian striker Ivan Deminov with a blind pass from behind the goal, who reduced the score to 1:3.

Tampa Bay subsequently regained a three-goal advantage, but Slafkovský reduced the score to 2:4 with a precise shot from the space between the circles in the 50th minute, and later sent the match into overtime with 3.8 seconds left.
The Slovakian representative also attempted his second hat-trick in the NHL in added time, but his shot was blocked by Swedish goalkeeper Jonas Johansson.
In the end, the fate of the match was decided only by separate raids, in which Gage Goncalves and Brayden Point arranged a 5:4 victory for Tampa Bay.
