Head coach Spencer Carbery noted that Lapierre has been 'working and watching games from a wing perspective, knowing that this opportunity may come up and knowing that he wanted to be able to not just be relying on a center injury or just going into that position.' This reflects Lapierre's readiness to adapt to new roles, which ultimately rewarded him with a chance to play on the third line.
Despite a challenging start to the season that led to limited ice time, Lapierre is now poised to 'play some power play, get him out there, and see if he can be productive in that role.' This showcases the coach’s confidence in Lapierre’s ability to contribute to the team during a pivotal moment.
