Alexis Lafrenière 2018 Hlinka-Gretzky & 2019 WJC Highlights

Sorry for the delay! Highlights include Lafrenière's goals, assists, shots & passes, and hits during the 2018 Hlinka-Gretzky Cup in Alberta, Canada and the 2019 World Junior Championship in BC, Canada.
Look out for #11 and #22 (but I've tried to highlight him in the WJC clips).
Lafrenière is 2020 NHL Draft eligible.

[@LEETCH_2]

WELCOME TO NEW YORK ALEXIS!

[@Team955]

People saying he is not the clear cut #1 in 2020 is just because they haven't seen him play in the last few months or so and have watch the Hlinka 2019 with other eligible 2020 prospects. Just wait till he puts up 2+ pts/game this season. #1 in 2020 hands down!

[@horrendouss5960]

Yeaaaa he did almost nothing this season, this didn't age well.

[@Team955]

@@horrendouss5960 lmao don't worry bud. This guy has crazy potential. It's tough to play as a 18 yo. Jack Hughes did not do shit in his first year to

Yikes😂😂😂

[@vicgermain4179]

Watch him dominate the next WJC! He will be unreal!

[@nolanplyley]

Good to know he’s already getting used to the Edmonton goal horn

You’re mistaking it with the New York horn

[@darcytait1505]

Haha kin dumbasses

[@mikeFolco]

Glad that didn't happen lol.

[@charlesw7441]

Watching these replays it looks like he's regressed since joining the Rangers which leads me to believe it's 100% mental. Kid needs to play with confidence and he often doesn't as he goes on dry spells and he's always looking to pass rather than shoot.

[@Ducksduckduck]

100% I'm really hoping the ducks are at least asking what the price tag on him is right now. Kakko too.

[@Sam-2468]

10:45. Those moves 😍

[@hambig3989]

he's nice with the spoon its gorgeous haha

[@wax.4188]

se Gars la Est juste Insane Nice !!!

[@remi9007]

His passing isnt what is impressive. I think its more his way of opening those passing lines to make super easy beautiful passes

[@fabriziolorenzo2392]

O Glorious Hockey Gods, we beg of you not to vindicate Eugene Melnyk and grant him the rights to draft LaFreniere or Byfield next year. Please do not allow Melnyk to get away with his demolition of the Ottawa Senators and be granted an opportunity at a Stanley Cup. Such soulless and avaricious men should not know the taste of the ultimate glory. In the name of Lord Stanley, McJesus, and the Holy Alfredsson, amen.

[@rickychardzz]

Watching the sens loose their first draft pick for duchene was so satisfying a d something you will regret a long time

[@SeanG907]

As a Ottawa fan I want Melnyk gone he is making horrible trades and signings. There’s actually billboards up saying Melnyk out.

[@ry4nx]

@Jordan they have way more than that lmao.

[@Thenorthelect]

His style of play reminds me of malkin, he’s already got way better hands than Jamie benn.

[@michael_fu_2002]

Malkin is more flashy and physical, but Alexis is more smooth, fast, tenacious and efficient. Maybe someone like Forsberg is a better comparable, or even Beliveau.

[@tich9599]

Dudes got 1 point so far in 12 games. Calm down

[@mustus71]

Alexis reminds me of a young Peter Forsberg.

[@brianschlaf7007]

Reminds me of Peter Forsberg and little bit of Crosby and Mcdavid

[@djrondo1224]

Reminds me a bit of Huberdeau with his spot on the PP. Although higher end skill/potential to be superstar. Not sure on Forsberg comparison but he is powerful in the legs like #21 was but forsberg is on of all-time greats. Higher end skill than Behn to but he commands the puck like BenN does. Looks like his feet and or speed need to improve a bit to be a super star in the NHL.

[@thisjustin352]

He kinda plays and reads the game like Elias Pettersson. Very smart player with a lot of silky moves. Will be interesting to see how he develops in the chel

[@sychonics4213]

He looks like kucherov but without the great shooting ability

[@stevenjack5428]

I am hopeing that lafreniere is a red wing

[@newyorkrangersfan7163]

Well he's a rangers instead!

Welcome to the Rangers!!!!!🤙🤙🤙

[@Serega_51]

Даже из того что нарезали,половина безрезультатно. Просто красиво. Далеко на красоте парень пройдет? А так да,способный. Талант. Но это пока молодежка. Дальше видно будет. И сравнение с Кросби,как минимум не уместно.

[@centralhockey12]

Craig button says he plays like Jamie Benn. I disagree, he plays very similar to Nathan Mackinnon. Just a lefty version. I see a mixture of Tavares and Mackinnon

[@Sam-2468]

Nicholas Alzugaray he’s more physical than Tavares and mackinnon. Kinda like benn

[@trolman777]

Sam tavares is a better comparable

[@mr.devil9577]

Tavares is slow as shit and McKinnon is fast as hell this comment confuses me lol

[@centralhockey12]

Club Shay Shay shooting of Tavares, skates and playmakes like Mackinnon. He may be physical in this video but I seriously think he’s going to be mostly skill at the NHL level. David Pastrnak was physical in these tournaments and he doesn’t hit in the nhl

[@centralhockey12]

I can see why he said Jamie Benn for this particular video but he skates nothing like Jamie Benn. He’s much faster than Benn. The way he playmakes, especially on the power play, is just like Mackinnon

[@GooseGumlizzard]

Lol

[@ry4nx]

he should focus on improving his skating

[@jasonhodgkins5211]

super vague...what aspect of his skating? That is the equivalent of telling an f1 driver that he needs to improve his driving.

[@TaunoPulmunen]

Yeah thats propably his biggest weakness

[@GooseGumlizzard]

His skating is good, he's just not a speedster.

[@qresisty8215]

his topspeed isn’t the best but he got elite edges and strength

[@rickychardzz]

Why put some shots in the highlights

[@swisscheese6456]

Highlights aren't just goals, assists and defense, its about the plays he makes that help the team, those shots generate scoring chances

[@rickychardzz]

Swiss Cheese true i just believe Lafrenière has enough points to make an awesome highlight video and do not need to add some nice unfinished plays

[@swisscheese6456]

@@rickychardzz honestly that is so true, great point.

[@bigwhite06]

While its true that Lafreniere is very good, i also include shots & all-around play, even for McDavid, because I/others want to see how players generate their chances and play away from the puck. Points-only highlight videos are very quick and easy to make but they don't accurately show a player's complete game. While a 10 min video isn't going to be as accurate as watching all his shifts in 10 games, i still hope viewers can get a more informed impression of the player's game.

[@rickychardzz]

Why is tsn comparing him to Crosby. Just stupid

Button compared him to a young Jamie Benn. They didn't compare him to Crosby. They just said that he was the first 16 years old to score 40 goals + since Crosby in 2004 !

[@mandalorianlegion576]

Nicoalex Lafreniere they put Crosby’s numbers in his first year and compared them to his.

[@illtrollurmom]

Mandalorian Legion because their numbers are comparable, they weren’t comparing their play styles or ability

[@mandalorianlegion576]

illtrollurmom I wasn’t referring to play style. Any rookie comparisons to a hofer is ridiculous.

[@illtrollurmom]

Mandalorian Legion yeah but their numbers are comparable so why wouldn’t they compare him
