Isn't there a big difference between Jost and JT Miller?

Colorado doesn't want that cap hit after they just extended Jost. (Colorado just says no. Don't worry about who adds)
Vancouver most likely doesn't want Drouin. (Montreal adds)

 

[RationalExpectations]

Drouin has no value right now, he was left unprotected at the draft while Evans Lehkonen Armia were protected.
Both teams say no to MTL.

Col wants to win sooner than later. Adding Drouin to the mix and having played with MacKinnon would be plus. As for the J.T. Miller option, Mtl could add a 3rd pick. Miller Gives Mtl for toughness in the offensive zone

Jonathan Drouin ($5.5 x 2)



JT Compher ($3.5 x 2)

Canadiens would be better off with futures in that case.

Compher is a negative asset at this point,

Compared to Drouin at an additional $2 MM cost per season? That seems a bit strong.

Drouin is over paid, but still useful complementary player.

Compher doesn't actually do anything useful on ice at all, just a warm body these days, and making a healthy chunk of change.

Drouin is very useful these days.

I doubt Drouin is in minds of many GM's right now knowing noone knows why he was away from the play (let's ignore all the rumors).

I think GM's might wait to see how (and if) the 1st half of season goes for him. He might garner interest at TDL.

 

[Stickpucker]

Is he still tired of hockey and on personal leave?

Of so maybe can send to TB to ltir him until playoff.

Seriously, how many f***ing threads are needed for it to sink in that the Avs don't want Drouin.

Drouin for M. Pettersson

 

[mac nylander]

marner for drouin

 

[Gabe Kupari]

At this point Montreal adds significantly for teams to take Drouin from them. I'd imagine his value Is close to nothing considering he took a LOA and hasn't played in a couple months now.

Montreal likely adds a 1st to any drouin deal at this time. 1. His cap hit 2. Does he even want to play anymore?

Drouin plus 1st to Arizona for Kessel or Dvorak lol

Seriously tho. His value has to be negative at this point. He's a cap dump really

 

[PaulGG]

It is sad.Can't imagine any team being interested as he is an unknown.

Avs barf. NFW Jost for Drouin.

But for JTC? Ok. We exchange bad contracts and the Habs save a few million AAV.

Droiun for JT Miller? That’s got to be a joke.

 

[Kosseca]

Seriously, how many f***ing threads are needed for it to sink in that the Avs don't want Drouin.

I think we are only half way to the max allowable

 

[13to40]

Drouin value right now is 2 steamies and a poutine


In all seriousness, Drouin’s value is at an all time low. With the cap hit he carries too, I don’t think it’s very appealing for any teams unless you are attaching a pick to him and it’s a cap dump.

 

[deckercky]

Drouin + montreal's '22 and '23 unprotected 1sts for JT Miller + 4th

 

[HuGo Sham]

Drouin + montreal's '22 and '23 unprotected 1sts for JT Miller + 4th

yeah...no

Seriously, how many f***ing threads are needed for it to sink in that the Avs don't want Drouin.

The thread starter has 10 post. The rest of us know. Seems like a thread to start some crap.

On Drouin pretty sure everyone wants see what player returns to the ice.
He did have 23 pts in 44 games even though he probably shouldn't even been playing because of his personal issues.

I will start by admitting I am not a Drouin fan, so my evaluation might be lower than what others think but lets look at this realistically.

Drouin vs Yost:
Drouin left the team for unknown reasons, could be a concern
Drouin is allergic to defense and physicality
2 years at $5.5 - in the previous 2 shortened seasons Drouin has played 71 games and has 9 goals, 38 points and a (-14 - 0.54 pts per game); over the same period of time Jost has 15 goals, 40 points and is a +25 in 121 games or 0.33pts per game.
Drouin doesn't pk, Jost does
Jost is younger, less expensive and has more team control years
Avs have very little cap space so $5.5 for a 0.5 ppg offense only player seems like a poor use of cap
Jost is the Avs defensive #3C, plays defensive match ups and Pks
Jost makes $2 x 2 yrs so less than half of Drouin's cap hit
Jost plays C - a more important position, Drouin plays W

Overall I don't see any reason to add 2 years at $5.5 for what Drouin has shown over the past 2 seasons

Drouin vs JT Miller
Over the past 2 seasons (Miller's time in Vancouver)
Drouin - 71games, 38 pts VS Miller - 122 games, 118 pts
Drouin - TOI: 15:57; PP TOI: 2:20; PK TOI: 0:01 VS Miller - TOI: 20:29; PP TOI: 3:42; PK TOI: 1:05
Drouin - Hits 67; Blocked Shots 12 VS Miller - Hits 213; Blocked Shots 62
Drouin Cap - 2 years @ $5.5 VS Miller Cap - 2 years @ $5.25
There isn't a single thing that Drouin has done better than Miller in the past 2 seasons.

I think it is quite obvious that Drouin and Miller are light years apart in value. The ++ in any deal would need to include the value of Miller (1st, good prospect, roster player) and compensation for the Canucks to take on the Drouin contract.

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Last 2 seasons Drouin is a PPG player

For the first 10 games…

only hope Montreal has is he comes back and can do that again and we flip him then, don’t expect a lot of value more than freeing up cap space.
