Confirmed with Link: Alexis Lafreniere Signs Extension [7Y/7.45M AAV]

[ORRFForever]

Conn Smythe anyone?...

 

[mas0764]

Rangers gonna have to do what Florida did: realize Mika and Trouba have to go in a hockey trade and get someone else in here.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Legit our only good forward besides Vinny

 

[jay from jersey]

He is driving the rangers entire offense at 22.
Mika/kreder/Panarin should have a lot left in the tank.
Waving at a saucer pass in front of the net isn’t going to be enough to get by FLA….
Going to actually have to drive to the net and pay the price…
I have no faith that Panarin will. Absolutely none. Honestly, marner would be better on a line with Laf if you’re worried about producing in the reg season. Both guys are elite passengers. When the going gets tough, they fold.
People will blame wheeler, but Zibby hung him out to dry there.
He knows the team is changing, and he still throws that weak shit limp wristed pass to the middle and Barkov is shot out of a cannon the other way. What’s wheeler supposed to do???? Read the ice for Christ sakes Mika

Honestly, besides laf/tro there’s no where to go but up for our top line guys. Besides Kreiders natural trick, none of them have even been a factor since.

 

[RangersFan]

Big game player. That was probably his best pre-draft attribute and we are seeing it now. Too bad his vet team mates are crumbling to the pressure.

 

[17futurecap]

Pretty much anytime he has the puck on his stick it's very exciting.

 

[Row I Goon]

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

I wouldn’t go that far. I think he still has more upside. I think the playoffs are the perfect stage for him though.

Bumping this

 

[Captain Monglobster]

Im just proud of this kid. Always loved his attitude. Definition of a gamer.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

One of four players that showed up this series. I don't know how the vets will be able to look the kid in his eyes after we lose this series.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Honestly, they should really think about bumping Mika for Laf on PP1.

Move Panarin into Mikas spot and put Laf at the point with Fox.

It will never happen, but this kid has a hot stick and hes in the zone.

 

[IDvsEGO]

Bumping this

I appreciate someone recognizing my genius!
Now if only people would accept what I’m saying about Kakko.

LMAO! Where did you get THIS?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Only thing about this series that gives me hope. Trocheck is huge too. But Trocheck is old enough that I worry about winning the cup with him here.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Been around a PPG for over half a seasons worth of games (playoffs included) and done most of his damage in the post season with out Panarin's help.

With out PP1 time.

He would be lucky to be a 2nd liner in the distant future.

 

[Atax]

Whoops wrong thread.

 

[bhamill]

I used to sometimes avoid the Laf thread because of the amount of shit posting negativity.
NOW the Laf thread is a REFUGE from the current (warranted and UNwarranted) negativity on most of the rest of this board.
How the worm has turned... the thread is completely transformed... is there anything this kid can't do?

Avoid hitting posts on goal of the year worthy goals?

 

[Psycho for Perreault]

Is it still possible to get 2 2nd's and a B prospect for him?

 

[bhamill]

ahahaha. Imagine...

 

[Peltz]

The way he's playing, if he can stay healthy he's going to be a great player for many years. He's noticeable in every game in the last two rounds. He's got physicality, finesse, vision, and now the speed he needs.

And unlike Bread, he's not an east-west player. He plays a straight line game and you can find him fighting for pucks in the blue plaint every night.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

His 7 ES goals are already the 2nd most in a NYR playoff run (Messier in 94 is 1st with 9.)

Laf has rang the bar 4 times in the playoffs too.

 

[Kennerback]

He's in the zone right now. I don't think Florida factored in just how much of a problem he'd be in this series. Laviolette needs to max out his usage.

 

[duhmetreE]

Do we give him the 8 year contract? how much is that going to cost? Something similar to Hughes?

8x7 or 8x8?
