Scouting Report

It’s always so tough to draw comparisons with such high level talent like Alexis Lafrenière because there are a lot fewer players to make an adequate comparison with. Common compliments include his ability to mask whether he is thinking of shooting or passing, a skill at manipulating defensemen, knowing when to drive the net, and a knack at elevating the play of his linemates.
