New York Rangers forward and first overall pick in the 2020 draft, Alexis Lafreniere, is having a rough start to his career in the Big Apple.

With 51 points in 133 games, the Quebecer is third in scoring in his draft, behind Lucas Raymond and Tim Stutzle.

What if we re-drafted everyone based on the famous "points per game" statistic, with more than 10 games in the NHL? Well, you're going to tell me it's way too early, but we're having fun.

Here is what the new top-10 could look like:

1 - New York Rangers: Lucas Raymond (originally drafted 4th by the Red Wings) 56 points in 81 games

2 - Los Angeles Kings: Anton Lundell (originally drafted 12th by the Panthers) 44 points in 65 games

3 - Ottawa Senators: Tim Stutzle (drafted 3rd overall by the same team) 86 points in 130 games

4 - Detroit Red Wings: Seth Jarvis (originally drafted 13th by the Hurricanes) 39 points in 67 games

5 - Ottawa Senators: Dawson Mercer (originally drafted 18th by the Devils) 41 points in 80 games

6 - Anaheim Ducks: Cole Perfetti (originally drafted 10th by the Jets) 7 points in 18 games

7 - New Jersey Devils: Alexis Lafreniere (originally drafted 1st by the Rangers) 51 points in 133 games

8 - Buffalo Sabres: Jamie Drysdale (originally drafted 6th by the Ducks) 39 points in 104 games

9 - Minnesota Wild: Quinton Byfield (originally drafted 2nd by the Kings) 11 points in 44 games

10 - Winnipeg Jets: Yegor Chinakov (originally drafted 21st by the Blue Jackets) 14 points in 60 games

Obviously, you will have understood and I repeat, that this exercise is only for fun, but to see Lafreniere fall so far, it hurts, same thing for Quinton Byfield.
