Alexis Lafreniere Posts First Career Hat Trick During Five-Point Outing
9 months agoNew York Rangers winger Alexis Lafreniere looked spectacular against the Coyotes on Saturday, completing an 8-5 win with his first career hat trick and five points. The 22-year-old became the Rangers' youngest player in 35 years to get to as many as five points in a single game. Lafreniere's NHL career has been full of bumps since he went first in the 2020 draft, but he's had a solid campaign in 2023-24 with 25 goals and 52 points in 74 games. Playing next to the sensational Artemi Panarin and Vincent Trocheck, Lafreniere has had a couple of very prolific weeks. In the past nine games, Lafreniere has collected 13 points (seven goals, six assists).
