The New York Rangers signed winger Alexis Lafrenière, the No. 1 pick in the 2020 NHL draft, to a seven-year contract extension Friday.

The new contract for Lafrenière, 23, will carry a $7.45 million average annual value (AAV) and runs through the 2031-32 season, sources told ESPN.

After three NHL seasons that didn't live up to Lafrenière's lofty draft position, last season was a breakout for the Quebec-born left wing.
