Given an ellipse $\frac{x^{2}}{8} + \frac{y^{2}}{2} = 1$, and a point $A(2,1)$ on the ellipse. The slopes of the lines $AB$ and $AC$ connecting point $A$ to two moving points $B$ and $C$ on the ellipse are $k_{1}$ and $k_{2}$, respectively, with $k_{1} + k_{2} = 0$. Determine the slope $k$ of line $BC$.
