Proposal: Jonathan Drouin

[The Macho King]

How sad for me that the shooting star of your career on hfboards escapes my notice.

I shine bright like a diamond.

 

[PKWeber]

Rangers laugh and hang up. Drouin will be a 50 point PP specialist in his prime.

The pretext could not be more obvious.

but.....he's French-Canadian!

 

[lifelonghockeyfan]

So many Habs proposals to get rid of Weber and Price....now Drouin?

That's all the Habs got for trade....high priced veterans, with poor money playing value per dollar. You can add Alzner and Petry to the list. 34 m for Price, Weber, Petry, Drouin and Alzner. For 34 m. Bruins have Rask, Marchant, Bergeron, Pasta and Krejci.

Drouin gets you a bluechip D prospect.

So will the thrill gets you a NHL ready d that's very good.

LOL butt hurt much ? You really should step away from your keyboard for a few days. I preferred it when you Laffs were irrelevant. Like the last 50 years.

WITH this comment, it's safe to say that you are the butt hurt one.

 

[MagicalRazor]

Really? Never got to 55 pts and pretty lousy defensively. Elite?

got 4th line mins in Tamapa , than gets traded to bottom 3 team in the league

 

[Legend123]

Yeah no. In fact hell no.
Drouin has muuuuuuch more potential. And the Habs desperately need him. Hell be great next year.

 

[Legend123]

This does nothing for the Rangers.

1) The age difference between Zibanejad and Drouin is not worth a first or second rounder.

2) Zibanejad is still young anyways.

3) Mika is also the better player.

Basically, you have the Rangers offloading a first or second for a worse player because he's a couple years younger. That's silly.

How exactly is he better? Lmao his career high is 51 points.

 

[Oilers Propagandist]

Drouin to Cgy for 2020 unprotected first round pick for a guaranteed shot at this mans...
Comparisons to Sidney Crosby not easy for Alexis Lafreniere to ignore - Sportsnet.ca

Gotta find something else cause he played 17:42 average. Thats 6th on Tampa fwds 16-17.

 

[Newsworthy]

Zibby is better and the NYR have no reason to trade him.

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

Trading Drouin now would be an idiotic decision and a PR nightmare.

 

[Deam78]

It is. No interest whatsoever. I'm not trading a top 7 pick for someone that hit 50 points one time, it's a terrible offer.

You know the pick in the OP is a 4th round pick and not the 4th OA selection of the draft right?

 

[Deam78]

What’s crazy about the craziest NYR posters on this board, including Ori and B-meister, is how right they sometimes are.

And I admit it grudgingly. They are rarely right but when they hit bullseye they hit dead-centre because NHL GMs are closer to them in their intelligence and approach than to the reasonable posters like Amazing Kredierman or BrooklynRangersFan. It’s sad.

Personally, I would not do Drouin for Zib + 2019 first. I would do Zib for the 3rd overall.[/QUOTE]

Of course you would as it would be a huge overpayment for Zib lol

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

You know the pick in the OP is a 4th round pick and not the 4th OA selection of the draft right?

Bahahaha.

 

[Deam78]

Bahahaha.

In 2019 may I had haha that guy was getting way too shocked thinking it was our 4th OA pick haha

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Hard to blame Drouin on everything for the habs

Everyone needs to chill out.
He played on an awful team , playing as a center with no wingers
Hes clearly not a center.
Hes still really young

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Nope.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Drouin's value is probably at an all time low, well maybe just behind when he was the spoiled brat who sat out a couple of years ago before coming back and putting up good numbers in the playoffs
Our GM would be an idiot to move him based on this past seasons performance - and yes I know our GM is an idiot so I won't be shocked

 

[gianni]

if the Canucks fall at the draft lottery &/or if whoever's available at their selection spot won't be NHL-ready for a few years, I would consider trading that pick for Jonathan Drouin.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

Don’t see rangers being too interested

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Don’t see rangers being too interested

Correct.

 

[Ulysses31]

As an outsider drouin IMO is better. He may not be a #1c but he could a solid core piece on a winning team.
