As a wings fan I’m listening
Especially considering how we had been shafted in the draft lotto and since Zadina flopped for us
He’s only 21.
Patience please.
Love it as a Rangers fan…really disappointed in him and Kakko so far
LAF is good,needs time for more chemistry in NY!
BOESER FOR LAFRENIER or GARLAND
I think Detroit should swap Veleno for Lafreniere and they can see if either reacts better on new teams. Veleno is way cheap and might be interesting to New York. Both players would probably benefit from a change of scenery. Not really sure about these guys from the Q who go high in the draft. Zadina might figure it out in San Jose. Maybe Detroit can send a pick or two in the deal to sweeten it a bit.
Trade him to calgary we will give you a 3rd round pick
If Panarin moves back to RW Laf can take 2LW!! Moving Panarin to LW is old and should get back to rw!!
Laf > Slaf
Idio.. Guy Lafleur was drafted at age 20. He played Ok for 2 and a half years.
Then ….
So go ahead and last chance him. We can wait
Tim Stutzle 1st line Center 3 seasons 5v5 114pts
Alex Laffienere 3rd LW 3 seasons 5v5 88pts
Give the kid playing time please!
Until he impresses soon to me he will always be Laughrenuer. lol
Ppl who always say "don't worry he'll be alright" after the first sign of trouble drive me crazy…I know it's impossible to see the future but man it really makes me question your judgement! Not specifically this channel, I'm just venting 😁
Also your tagline is still gibberish.
Nobody wants to trade for that bust 😂😂😂
Similar to DRW and Zadina’s contract. That did not work!
I can’t imagine a first pick rookie in New York, Boston or Toronto. Fans and media are unforgiving!
No rangers fans want to trade Lafreniere. Give him time to develop, nobody is asking for a trade. Stop baiting with these stupid videos.
Keep dreaming, Laf is staying in NY
I like your understanding of this contract and player
