It's kinda strange. You had: Then we got: But now we have:
 * Orochimaru: Snakes
 * Jiraiya: Toads
 * Tsunade: Slugs
 * Sasuke: Snakes (and Hawks somehow as well)
 * Naruto: Toads
 * Sakura: Slugs
 * Mitsuki: Snakes
 * Boruto: You can make an argument that Boruto will summon Toads, just like both his father and grandfather before him, third in line. Also helps that Boruto's sensei, Konohamaru, also summons Toads. But then you can make another argument, that since Boruto's 'master' is Sasuke, Boruto should summon Snakes or even Hawks.
 * Sarada: You can make an argument that Sarada will summon Slugs, just like her mother and her mother's mistress. But then you can make another argument, that since Sarada's father is Sasuke, Sarada should summon Snakes or even Hawks. At last, you can make an argument that since Sarada aspires to become a Hokage and looks up to Naruto, she might mimic him and become a Toad summoner.

I think the 3-way deadlock will be kept. But who knows, maybe the writers will surprise us.
