Alex Laferriere highlighted the LA Kings pipeline with four goals in two games for Harvard this past weekend. There were three players in mind who could have had the honor, but ultimately Laferriere was the recipient as he was absolutely clutch for Harvard as they swept Princeton in the ECAC Hockey quarterfinals.

In the two games, Laferriere recorded four goals (two in each contest) along with a +3 rating. He now has 20 goals in 31 games this season, six goals in his last four games, 10 goals in his last 12 games, and has a four-game streak (eight points in that span). Harvard plays Cornell, this Friday, March 17th. We’ll see if Laferriere’s hot streak continues.
The man of the hour🫡
