Yeah, 6 goals that include 2 empty nets. If you don't count them, his shot % is at 7,5% compare to last year 20%. But at least he got a tons of assist to compensate.1 goal and 2 assists for Lafreniere in a 5-2 win over Blainville-Boisbrand. Zavgorodniy & Lafreniere are tearing the league up. His goal production has dropped a lot, why is that?
Probably just teams double teaming him and tightly checking him. If youre a coach heading in a game, im having the entire team make sure he doesnt score.

I watched Lafrenière against Moncton last Sunday and Seitz was glued to him all game. Lafrenière still managed 2 assists and had a pretty good game overall considering.
I remember this happening to Lemieux, the opposing team glued a guy on him. Lemieux is such a smart player, when he realized it, he started following another player from the other team everywhere. As a result, 2 players would be on him while only 3 other players were watching 4 of his teammates, including Jagr. If I'd be Alexis coach id show him the clip. One of the reason why Mario is my all-time fave.
30 points in 18 games. Around a 1.67 PPG pace.
Anyone know any cool stats relative to his points and age so far to the previous superstars from the Q (or even CHL for that matter)?
Destroyed Saint John (what else is new, they are **** this season), Alexis got 3 points (2 goals and 1 assist).
Common, cool down. You can hardly say "destroyed" to a player with 2+1 in a game that his team won 9:1.
I wasn't saying he single handedly destroyed SJ, but Rimouski did. Alexis just did a lot of damage.
pretty much the same as Nathan MacKinnon his sophomore year. 1.70 in 44 games played. missed games due to injury and World Juniors. Lafreniere is that type of prospect.
Yea his production is nearly identical to MacKinnon's both at 16 at 17 so far, but Lafreniere is a month younger so he will get an extra year.
All things considered, at 16 I liked MacKinnon a bit more in terms of pro upside, his skating was far ahead and he just took over games and really shone in the playoffs which is where I would really give NM the nod.
I would definitely say Alexis is right in that category though, and depending on the type of style you prefer one might take Lafreniere over MacKinnon at this age, but it is certainly close either way.
Seems to be a lot less people saying they’re worried about Lafreniere now after than there was after his “slow” start. This is why sample size is important and you can’t rush to conclusions after 5 games. The kids not even really began to heat up yet and he’s already on a 113 point pace.
Pretty sure he wouldn't be able to. He would need to go to get permission fro. The CHL and they qouldnt let him go overseas. Matthews went since for him it was either NCAA or International(with CHL being a option he wouldnt seriously ever consider)should he take the Matthews route and play overseas in his draft year?
I personally like the idea of it
