One issue that has been dragging on since the end of the season is Alexis Lafrenière's next contract. The Quebec forward completed his three-season entry-level contract and was looking to reach an agreement with the New York Rangers. It's now a done deal. Laffy has signed a two-season deal paying him $2.235 million per season. There will be no offer sheet for him, and he will have two more years to prove himself worthy of the first overall pick in 2020. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/MOBeaudoin1/status/1694451354222113029?t=zLplwLxy1fjT4nKAiaKg2w&s=19'> </a></blockquote></div>
