I realized Lafreniere's on ice results this season are very strong, so I decided to see how his individual statistics lined up against some of the best playmaking wingers in the NHL. As you can see, he is not as good as them but the results aren't too far off. We have to keep in mind he has mostly been playing on the fourth line with Rooney and Blais, so it's actually impressive to be generating these types of results. Unfortunately, I just don't see how he has a future in NYR, he's never going to get a top 6 spot over the likes of Panarin, Kreider and Goodrow. I feel alongside a high profile center, he can be quite productive.
