The D he was up against went down early and took himself out of the play? Who was it? A Panthers player, or a bubble AHLer?
According to an announcer calling the play, it was Ekblad.

Chiarot what an awful acquisition.
Drouin’s value dropping significantly. Pretty soon he will be worth nothing at all.
It’s the same thing every year, it’s carbon copy year in year out, some have the memory span of a mosquito.My god the comments . 1st preseason game for some vets and people already losing their minds like they never watched hockey before. Vets are slowly getting ready for the start of season 3 weeks from now, they are not trying to win a spot in the lineup.
There are exaggerations on both sides. Some people going crazy over prospects, good or bad.It’s the same thing every year, it’s carbon copy year in year out, some have the memory span of a mosquito.
Remember last year when the board was up in arms because of KK’s slow start, and how his skating was brutal and how we should’ve picked the Czech instead........oh ya, I remember very very well.

Wasn't able to watch the game but by the comments here I take it that Droo-ehn had another outstanding game. Bergevin will never admit that he screwed up with the pretty local boy... Bon pt't gars d'chez nous is going to be here for a long time dazzling the fans with his potential. Buckle up.
Nailed it...Everyone who says they “can’t believe how awful Drouin played,” and how he has no pride, etc....
Where have you been for the last two seasons?
The guy has been mailing it in since he got here and Bargain Bin anointed him as his superstar. No effort, no problem. Therrien had Desharnais as his pet, Bargain Bin has Drouin.
Someone said he was gonna be a Jay Beagle kind of player like 2weeks ago !!
It's just a big jump - I also understand he's also never really played on North American ice.What in his play makes you sure he needs time in the A?
Confirmation bias at play perhaps?I can already tell chiarot is gonna be a nightmare to watch this season. although thats what I though the second we signed him, so thats not saying much
How about the eye test at play considering he played the exact same way in winnipeg last year carried by his partners every gameConfirmation bias at play perhaps?

This is preseason, not even close to the level of play that he's going to face in the regular season.
Brook hasn't shown me anything NHL worthy yet.
I can't speak for how he played in Winnipeg last year nor do I really care about how a player who has his spot locked up and is playing his 2nd ever game on his new team, with a new coaching staff, during a preseason game, performs.Howabout the eye test at play considering he played the exact same way in winnipeg last year carried by his partners every game
Drouin was our worst foward tonight and there is no overreaction here, he got outplayed big time by some AHLers, cant believe how bad he is turning to...
I'll say it again. If we want to be relevant next season, We'll have to ice something similar to;
Domi - Kotkaniemi - Lehkonen
Drouin - Danault - Gallagher
Tatar - Poehling - Armia
It would completely change the outlook of the team.
Thats fair just dont expect him to look any betterI can't speak for how he played in Winnipeg last year nor do I really care about how a player who has his spot locked up and is playing his 2nd ever game on his new team, with a new coaching staff, during a preseason game, performs.
I'll put my "scouting hat" on Chiarot when he's played a dozen games.
You just can't give the minutes you typically give to Danault and Gallagher (tough minutes) to Drouin.
I didn't really notice him, for good or bad, last night.Thats fair just dont expect him to look any better
I noticed some bad decisions and coverage coupled with average skating but i was focusing on him as a new acquisition so that could be whyI didn't really notice him, for good or bad, last night.
That's what I expect this year as well.
I can’t believe how many people are rating our vets during pre-season. The vets just don’t want to get hurt. Give Chiarot at least 10 games before crapping on him.
Kotka and Poehling are the real deal, Evans really impressing me too, I think we have some gamers here.
It is pre-season after all. The regulars have not showed anything from either side. So much skill and potential,so give it a good dozen games in the regular season to assess.
