With another (beautiful) assist tonight, he now has 12 points in his last 14 games, none of which came on the PP.
Not bad for a shutdown defenseman.

How bout we let this thread die?
I think it's great to bring attention to Slavin and how well he's doing in a prominent role, has to be really fun as a Canes fan watching him. I didn't even know who he was before this thread and I'm glad someone made it. Just kick back and enjoy as other fan bases start to appreciate him, it was a very similar situation with Parayko for Blues fans.
It doesn't bring positive attention to Slavin. The unfortunately phrased OP provoked some unnecessary and, frankly, uneducated negative comments. Every fanbase likes to praise their guys. It's normal. But controversially OP'd threads invite push-back. We have a thread for our guy, but because it did start with "Our guy is better then your guy", it is a reasonable one. Very small percentage of stupid comments. Slavin's thread is full of them.I think it's great to bring attention to Slavin and how well he's doing in a prominent role, has to be really fun as a Canes fan watching him.

After last night's performance, I'm bumping this thread. He matched up vs McDavid all night and completely shut him down while being a key offensive catalyst. There was a highlight reel shown of him taking the puck from McDavid and his line - it was like 40 seconds long lol.
One of the best single game performances I've seen from a defenseman. Hurricanes got out to a big lead early, so it was all oilers from a possession stand point as they pushed to get back in the game.

Anybody doubting that this kid is the real deal should watch last night's game. If I'm building a franchise he's the first defenseman I'd take, especially considering his bargain contract.
He's a superstar in the making.
I'd say closer to 80 he has those few off games #@%$# why do I have a bigger shovel then last time!. (Sorry in joke)you want to understand the jaccob slavin hype?
just watch last nights game and realize he does that 82 games a season
Why is there 2 C's in his name tho

I believe it was later in the third period on the Hurricanes broadcast.Do you know at what point in the game this compilation was shown and on which telecast? I'd really like to see it! Please and thank you!

Carolina should make the playoffs this year if they have three #1D's in Slavin, Pesce and Faulk.
