The deal for Laferriere goes through 2024-2025 with an AAV of $875,000, per the LA Kings PR. Before signing his ELC (Entry-Level Contract), Laferriere signed an ATO (Amateur Tryout) with the Ontario Reign on March 29th after his junior year (sophomore playing season) at Harvard ended. In four games he recorded one goal and played first-line minutes.
