#45 Alexandre Carrier

Alexandre Carrier is coming off a 2021-2022 NHL season that saw him play in 77 games with 30 points (3 G, 27 A), +26, and 95 shots on goal. This effort led to him having over 20 minutes of ice time nearly every game played.

This season, through 16 games played, Carrier has 0 points, is a -3, and is averaging just over 1 shot on goal per game. With the addition of Ryan McDonagh during the offseason, Carrier’s influence on the ice needs to be more apparent if he wants the ice time and responsibility that was entrusted into him over the course of last season.
