This is my gut feeling as well a good winger but nothing noteworthy.Too slow to be anything but 1st or 2nd line winger, might knock on the top50 at his peak.
This is what he was supposed to be three years ago. Nice that he finally sort of broke out, but he’s not particularly skilled enough to go far beyond this. No shame in being a low end first / good second liner.At 22? Based on what?
I like how everyone is just ognoring that he scored more goals than MacK through their first four years, with only 5 on the PP.
It’s going to make your crying delicious when Laf ks a hart finalist in 2 years.
What about Ryan Strome?BTW, Panarin's line was not stacked when it was Jasper Fast, Colin Blackwell, and Dryden Hunt on his other wing. Saying that Lafreniere benefited from playing with Panarin and saying that Panarin had no benefit from having a good winger for a change on his best season in his career is disingenuous. People are just haters because they're invested in hating the kid and him sucking because you don't want to admit he's wrong. Hart proclamations are cringe AF but he's a bona-fide 1st line winger at 22 years old.

My bad, I’m sure the plan for a #1oa forward was for him to finally break 50 points in his fourth nhl season.Says who?
