A FORCED RETURN TO THE JUNIOR ROWS IN THE FALL?
There is consensus. Alexis Lafrenière has nothing more to prove in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
Could exceptional circumstances force him to return?
At this time, we do not know the date of the next draft of the National Hockey League. According to certain scenarios that are proposed, it could take place after the Stanley Cup final. The final could be presented during the first weeks of October.
In his recent forecasts, the QMJHL commissioner, Gilles Courteau, talks about a return to competition at the beginning of October.
Could Lafrenière return to the junior, to play there for a while?
The question was put to his advisers. In the climate of uncertainty that we know, they chose not to comment. In the same wave, another question arises.
The next regular NHL season could start in January 2021. Again, it will depend on how the virus progresses.
Could the team that will draft him allow him to have one last experience at the next world junior championship?
