- Start date
That's a tall order what you're asking there for this softie...

At this stage, with his contract, if no one was willing to pick up someone like Tyler Johnson (who is still vastly better than Drouin) for free, his value is negative.

Johnson better than Drouin? That's a good one. Habs should stay patient and see what happens now that they have some more depth on offense.

You're asking for something realistic. I provided a realistic value. Your very own OP is not realistic.
Yes. They're both below average defensively, but Drouin is an absolute disaster in that regard. Drouin also happens to drag down his teammates offensively, despite his number of points. Basically, most players he plays significant time with score more when Drouin is not playing with them.
Tyler Johnson wasn't claimed because noone in this landscape can add cap without subtracting some cap to offset...but thanks for dropping by...

What teams can even take his salary?
In the last 3 yrs he’s slightly over 0.5 PPG.
As ES he is below 0.5 PPG which makes him too expensive if not on PP1.
It’s best to wait till deadline or next offseason

Apologies to Drouin fans, but imo this player has very low value. Honestly I wouldn’t want my team to offer to get him. Maybe another team might take Drouin, but I think he’s not returning much.

AVs might toss a 5th round pick, slightly higher if retention is involved.
Comparables:
p.s. Value is so low, not offering Jost.
Comparables:
- Schmidt - 3rd (2022);
- Toews - 2nd (2021 + 2022);
- Johnson T - Waived (no interest);
- Murray R - 5th (2021);
- Murray M - 2nd (2020) + pick;
p.s. Value is so low, not offering Jost.

Virtanen is worth much more, maybe a 2nd.
He earns less than half the salary of Drouin and resigning would involve a modest raise and would still be lower.

I would give Drouin this final season to prove his worth. He showed up in our playoffs so maybe that is a sign of things to come.
I think the hawks could offer umm... Zadorov?AVs might toss a 5th round pick, slightly higher if retention is involved.
Comparables:
Few if any teams with limited cap space would take his $5.5M contact.
- Schmidt - 3rd (2022);
- Toews - 2nd (2021 + 2022);
- Johnson T - Waived (no interest);
- Murray R - 5th (2021);
- Murray M - 2nd (2020) + pick;
p.s. Value is so low, not offering Jost.

This thread makes no sense...
Drouin has found chemistry with Suzuki and will likely start the next season with him. Montreal doesn't need to trade his salary right now and it's a buyers market with talented players with term being traded for well under market value. Why would the team choose to trade him now...?
