Bad news for former 1st overall pick Alexis Lafreniere

Important news from New York tonight, and it concerns a Quebecer.

New York Rangers head coach Gerard Gallant has decided to leave out Alexis Lafreniere, a first this season for the Quebecer.

According to the information that is circulating, it could be in order to give a little break to the one who was the 1st overall pick in the 2020 NHL draft.

Lafreniere is going through a very difficult sequence right now, he has not collected any points in his last eight games, even if he gets quality minutes in the offensive zone with good players.

It will be interesting to see the impact of this decision. The Rangers next game is this Saturday against the Detroit Red Wings.

More details will follow!

Let's take this opportunity to remind an interesting debate: if you had the choice between Shane Wright and Alexis Lafrenière, which one would you take?
