Good To See Laviolette Have This Much Confidence In Lafrenière
The Rangers lost 4-3 against the Montreal Canadiens in a shootout last night.
But it's good to hear afterwards Peter Laviolette having such confidence in his players, specifically, Alexis Lafrenière.
"He's way up in the lineup for us to shoot"
I don't blame Laviolette, especially with what Alexis Lafrenière did earlier this season against the Columbus Blue Jackets in the shootout on November 12th.
Alexis Lafrenière has gotten the wrong end of the stick in previous seasons that has impeded his growth as a player from other coaches.
But it looks like that is all changing now.
