Slavin Joins Rare U.S. Gold-And-Cup Club

Jaccob Slavin has landed in a piece of hockey history that almost no American player ever reaches. He now shares a very exclusive summer double with Ken Morrow, which tells you how hard it is to peak on both sides of the Atlantic and still have enough left for June. That kind of run does not happen by accident, and it says plenty about where Slavin’s game sits when the lights are brightest. There is a reason the short list is basically a one-name club.
