Alex Laferriere with six goals to begin the season
The Los Angeles Kings had Alex Laferriere in a prominent role in this offense entering the season as he was on the top line with Anze Kopitar and Adrian Kempe. He didn't stay there and was moved when Jim Hiller moved the lines around after the Maple Leafs' game but it hasn't mattered as Alex Laferriere has continued to produce.
Through the first 11 games, Laferriere had six goals and is well ahead of his pace from his rookie season where he had 12 goals in 81 games. He has continued the scoring into November as he also had two goals against the Chicago Blackhawks and is leading the Kings in this category. Laferriere currently is riding a three-game goal streak dating back to the road game against the San Jose Sharks.
It will be interesting to see how long he can keep this pace but it doesn't look like Laferriere is heading towards any kind of sophomore slump with the way he has started the season.
