New York Rangers head coach Gerard Gallant sent a clear message to his young player, Alexis Lafreniere.
The first overall pick in 2020 was left out of tonight's game. The Quebecer does not have a single point in the last eight games.
Gallant's goal is obviously to wake up Laffy.
It will be interesting to see if this decision has any positive impacts this Saturday, as the Rangers take on the Red Wings.
