Alexis Lafreniere

NY Rangers, ,

The New York Rangers Win The First Draft pick.

This is a massive development. The young man on the top of the prospects is Mr. Alexis Lafreniere from Saint-Eustache, QC, Canada. The 6′ 1″ 193 pounds, LW player has been turning heads for some time now, with many calling him a “generational talent.” That’s about the highest praise you can get for an athlete and while he’s only 18 and time will tell of how he does in the NHL, he’s at the very least a natural talent. Take a look!

The Rangers head office would have to be crazy not to pick him. This is happening at a great time for the team and adds a new piece to work with for at least the next 3 seasons. The offensive line is more and more stacked, the focus on renewing/trading/letting players has to be on the defensive line now. There are big holes in the Rangers defense that need to addressed to get this team to be a Cup contender.

Stanley Cup 2020 Brackets

NY Rangers, ,

Here are our potential champions.

My favorites are Vegas in the West and Philadelphia in the East. The East is stacked though, there are a lot of monsters sitting right there. I think Montreal and Carolina have the most odds against them. There is no way Chicago is beating Vegas. It’s been a long time since Arizona has been in the Playoffs and I have no idea how good they are (Dallas too). It’d be fun to see Calgary go far, and hey Vancouver has a chance too. It’s been ages since a Canadian team has won the Cup. I haven’t seen a single Vancouver game so I don’t know how they stack up against the defending Champions.

The tournament is off to the races already with Tampa’s 5 OT (!) win against Columbus.
