Since being selected as the first overall pick in the 2020 draft, Alexis Lafrenière has faced immense pressure to live up to the huge expectations placed upon him. However, in his 216 games with the Rangers, he has managed to score 91 points, which falls short of what many hoped for. <div align='center' style='padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px;'><img src='https://i.marqueur.com/habsetlnh/i/photo/290421.webp' width='100%' border='0' alt='image' loading='lazy' defer /></div> Now, a trade proposal has emerged that might just breathe new life into Lafrenière's career. <h2>Massive Trade Proposal</h2> The proposed scenario would see Lafrenière making a return to his hometown by joining the Montreal Canadiens, along with Barclay Goodrow. In exchange, the Rangers would acquire Josh Anderson. <div align='center' style='padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px;'><img src='https://i.marqueur.com/habsetlnh/i/photo/290349.webp' width='100%' border='0' alt='image' loading='lazy' defer /></div> Let's face it; it's been a challenging task for Lafrenière to break into the Rangers' top 6 right now. The team boasts a plethora of talented forwards, leaving him mostly relegated to the third line. However, a move to Montreal could prove highly beneficial for him. The Canadiens' lineup offers more opportunities for ice-time, especially alongside skilled players like Nick Suzuki and Kirby Dach. And on top of that, he would be back in familiar surroundings � a homecoming for the young star. <h2>Big Implications</h2> The proposed trade would require the Habs to take on Barclay Goodrow, along with the remaining four years of his $21,850,000 contract. Goodrow has proven to be a reliable bottom-6 player and would undoubtedly add valuable depth to the Canadiens' lineup. On the flip side, the Rangers would part ways with Josh Anderson, a fan-favorite and highly sought-after player. Despite several offers in the past, Anderson has shown his commitment to the Canadiens. The question now is, will the inclusion of Lafrenière be enough to sway the Canadiens' decision? It's worth noting that Montreal's President of Hockey Operations, Jeff Gorton, was formerly the Rangers' GM and the one who drafted Lafrenière. The trade would also pose a challenge for the Rangers, as they signed Goodrow to a six-year contract just two years ago, making it difficult to part ways with him.
