Former No.1 Pick Is Becoming A Big Reason For Rangers' Success
Alexis Lafrenière has been playing very well on arguably the best line for the Rangers.
A line that consists of Lafrenière himself, Artemi Panarin, and Filip Chytil.
Panarin is currently on a six game point streak, and will be looking to make it seven tonight.
Chytil is feeding everyone the puck.
Then there's the man of the hour, Alexis Lafrenière.
So far, he has three goals, and is currently riding a two game goal streak. He's on a 40 goal pace for the season.
Every time the man scores, the team wins. They are 1-2 when he doesn't, the lone win coming against the Arizona Coyotes.
It's important down the stretch, he builds up the confidence he needs to become a big time scorer.
It may be what gets us over the hump and into the promise land. He has the potential to do it. Now let's see that potential become reality.
The Rangers' will soon be facing off against the struggling Edmonton Oilers, at Rogers Place, in Edmonton.
