Alexis Lafrenière’s redemption quest could define the Rangers’ future

This week at NHL FanSided is all about redemption. Alexis Lafrenière isn't far removed from being considered a can't miss top draft pick, but he's failed to live up to his pre draft hype. This year is the first of a lucrative contract extension, and he faces a defining season that could redeem his career to date and help get the Rangers back on track. Whether or not he is up to the task remains to been seen.
