Of all the problems for an NHL team to have at the start of training camp, a burgeoning player needing more opportunities is one any would like to have.
Such is a headlining matter for Alexis Lafreniere and the New York Rangers as they prepare for their first official on-ice session of the preseason on Thursday at MSG Training Center.
Head coach Peter Laviolette acknowledged Lafreniere’s breakout campaign, but as for exploring an expanded role for the 22-year-old wing, he said that’s what training camp is for. Alexis Lafreniere #13 of the New York Rangers controls the puck during overtime against the Columbus Blue Jackets at Madison Square Garden on November 12, 2023 in New York City.
Setting career highs in several categories at the conclusion of the regular season, posting 28 goals and 29 assists, Lafreniere only upped his game in the postseason.New York Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette when the New York Rangers held their end of season interviews Tuesday, June 4, 2024 at Madison Square Garden Training Center in Greenburgh, NY.
The increased workload reflected in Lafreniere’s statistics, which is naturally the thought process behind getting the Quebec native even more.
