Alexis Lafrenière (#13) ● ALL 12 Goals 2020-21 Season - Highlights (HD)

[@DeadPixel27]

He'll have a real good sophomore season for sure

[@cthomas025]

As long as he gets the ice time, I think so.

[@beezer5623]

His only real issue is his skating. He looks avg speed wise. That can be worked on, he wont ever be elite like McDavid but he can get to a stage below that. He is super young so , build up thigh strength and take power skating classes. His hands are Elite. Those in close backhand goals are sick and the couple goals where he was going around the net only to pull it back and go shortside, very few players can do that. Based on the eye test. He should be a 60-80 pt scorer

[@matt3938]

are you lafs burner? i agree with you but he always says "for sure"

[@JamesFitz8]

@@beezer5623 May I ask why he will never be elite? I never played hockey so I could be very wrong here, but didn't McDavid only have 16 goals his first season? 4 more then Laf? Like I said I am not trying to argue just genuinely interested?

[@beezer5623]

@@JamesFitz8 Mcdavid only played half a season. Maybe 9 less games than Lafi I think, plus he had like 30 assists or so. Just keep in mind when I say elite I’m talking a level like McDavid. I think Lafi will be a great player for sure, he has the skill to be a 60-70 pt player. It’s hard to describe what I’m talking about but as an example, when you watch Adam Fox on the ice, you can see he is playing on another level. He has this vision not many players have. He makes little subtle moves at the blue line to fake out defenders to keep the puck in the offensive zone. His hand eye coordination is insane at times batting pucks down at the blue line to keep it in the zone. Maybe never is a harsh word cause he is super young. But he needs to get quicker and faster. Also didn’t see to much skating with the puck through the neutral zone dictating play. Here is what is a wildcard with him. He didn’t have any real training camp to get ready, he has plenty of time to get stronger especially in his legs. Also, Quinn was a mess with the lines this year some his fault some because of injuries etc.. so Lafi didn’t have a lot of stability on that front.

he was awesome at the end of the season! this kid is gonna be a hell of a player in the future!

[@bigjohn08865]

I hope so!

[@KTF0]

Hopefully he can have an early prime.

[@mikeybx]

He's is going to be special

[@Koby4L150]

People hate on him 2 much, sometimes it takes a player a year or 2 to get used to the speed of the nhl

[@spencermiller4661]

So many assists from Buchnevich. Brutal trade Drury.

[@mickeywicked478]

Did you watch the preseason game last night against Boston? Blais was a monster. Kids got talent and balls to boot. I think we’re going to be okay cuz that dude is in our bottom 6. It’s a luxury to have someone like that low on the depth chart. Buchnevich’s scoring touch will be missed though...until Kakko takes that 1RW spot for good. KK is in a class of his own, a class not even LaF comes close to...

[@thedeucemonkey2331]

It's only the start for this kid...Can't wait to what's next...

[@HarrisonHollers]

Kid had a year off basically til he started playing games again due to covid. He’s a big kid, sees the ice, and has a great shot! He’s a star! Btw, after his first goal when Blackwell goes immediately after the puck is awesome. Love the game and the people in it!

[@Rangerstown00]

Got better as the season went on. Rust was definitely a factor for him, he's gonna be a heck of a player.

[@yaranen2797]

That and now he’ll have the ice time that Quinn decided not to give him towards the end of last season

[@monkbop8044]

Rust is a weird nickname for Quinn. Never heard that one before

[@anotherguynamedgabe2573]

His second Buffalo goal was such a “I scored and now my controller died” moment lol

[@mamaji277]

Ahh the best time of the year, playoffs about to start and you start to post goal compilations! What a time to be alive 😂

[@mikeybx]

That 12th goal was nasty and he's going to have a monster season

[@stefan8755]

@@mikeybx yes then my opinion doesn‘t count for sure

[@mikeybx]

@@stefan8755 Well I was hopeful that he was going to have a good season and it's only his second season and if you think about it it's only a season and a half because of the short season if you don't think he's going to be a good player you're out of your mind some players take time to find their game

[@stefan8755]

@@mikeybx fact is that he is not worth a no. 1 pick overall. If he needs more time, he will get the time he needs. Stuetzle is a No. 1 Pick in a much worse Team, also Kaako is not a No. 2 Pick, but also fact is that the Rangers are doin‘ really well this Year. Imagine Lafreniere and Kaako would perform.

[@runningthesw5788]

Can't wait until next season

[@julianhelmi2660]

Yes I have watched him this year big string kid needs to win the board game better gets pushed around a little bit needs to shoot more faster skater quick release on his shot has a point in five straight games here we forget Kridier was still in BC this is his second year I think he does well in the playoffs and explodes next year now Kappo I have real concerns about

[@HouseOfHockey14]

That last goal was a beaut.

[@ccink3931]

Man... I don't watch many NYR games but he was lucky to have gotten that many lol. I mean hell Lucic could have gotten 90% of them 😂

[@jackharrist8180]

a lot of fans including myself overreacted to his slow start (likely from rust after not playing official games during peak covid). he’ll be really good next year.

[@Uncle_Troy]

If he had gotten as much ice time as Kaprizov did, he might just have vied for the Calder. Some of these shots are outrageous.

[@11DNA11]

Easily. And Kaprizov is nearly 5 years older than Laffy is.

[@mattroy6630]

The next Alexandre d'aigle hahahaha

[@Jayrhum10]

"He looks youngee without his beard". Just Pierre McGuire being a creep as usual.

[@myzticalz3289]

That’s a normal ass statement lmao

[@mickeywicked478]

The only thing I’d change is his inability to embrace his nearest teammate following an individual-effort goal. It hurts to see him look off Z after the stuff-in against Philly. He literally veers around him 😔

[@riotu733]

He’s gonna breakout next szn

[@11DNA11]

Him and Kakko both. Under Gallant they're gonna thrive.

If stupid Quinn would left this kid in the first line he probably would have score 20 goals smh but thank God his fired

[@beezer5623]

yeah, felt like the whole season was just a giant line experiment. Started out bad for Mika who didnt recover from COVID then the issue with Panarin hit us. Kakko was playing great then COVID restrictions hit him twice and slowed his progress down.

[@johnrwalker53]

You're the stupid one.Quinn's not going to put him on the 1st Line until he's ready.Laffy is not Crosby or McDavid.Be Real!

Having basically no offseason probably didnt help

[@itstylxr1944]

Rangers would be in the playoffs if it was a normal season

[@itstylxr1944]

Plus he had no offseason or world juniors so he was super rusty and it showed. But after his horrible start he put up 20 points in 30 games which is defenitly not bad for a 19yo rookie

Rangers would be in playoffs in reg szn they had more points then Montreal 🤣🤣

Rangers are in the Toughest Division in the League and they still almost made the Playoffs with this very young team.Study hockey more first before commenting Roy.
