Someone spotted a fan wearing this at the Staples Center yesterday.
Clearly forgot the period after the A.
Alexandre Barnac wasn't the dude a highly touted puck moving left D.

Any good knowledgeable hockey fan knows the flaws Drouin has and not many like soft style games. It just looks worse on our roster cause we have a young and very small team.
As long as Drouin is developing into a forward who can put up 60-80 pts, I'm OK with it. And he is tracking this way. He is playing his best season yet and he is 23, not 25.
Miam. I thought that was closed by now. I used to go to the other joint just a bit south.
It's shocking that some of us don't take life or hockey too seriously.Habs won... and the picture of that guy with a "swearing" word on his jersey is the talk of this board....
Jarry's is so good. Also my preferred smoked meat place.
Don't know why the Kings are so bad? They still have talent. Quick, Kopitar, Doughty, Carter, Brown
No, but we can free Bwyan. LOL"we will fwee Brian"
The sugar rush kept me awake through the last two periods.
We need to go get at least 97 points to sniff the playoffs, Price has to play every game down the stretch unless one of the Pens/Canes/Jackets fall back
Hopefully those 4 contenders rest some of their players in that final week otherwise we have to go 9-2 in the next 11

60-80 points is humongous range.
He has the skill you look for, but his decision making is not elite at all. He's also questionable in his play without the puck.
Its frustrating to watch players with immense skill but lagging hockey sense.
never heard of him..... until you brought him upHabs won... and the picture of that guy with a "swearing" word on his jersey is the talk of this board....
Firing Lombardi and Sutter might not have such a great idea. They did build two Stanley Cup winners. No reason to think they could and would not have adjusted to the younger and faster league. Lobardi may have traded some vets and retooled on the fly. Doubt they would have added and old Kovalchuck to and already aging group of forwards.Slow, lumbering legs.
The league has moved to speed and youth. The Kings are still defined by what made teams win in a different NHL.
His poor play off record shines a bright light on just how many weak line ups he has been stuck with.I was just trying to say that Price makes those around him better and it's easy to see what we are without him. They won't play Niemi who some here even said was better than Price before he came back to earth. Even last night against one of the worst teams in the league he had to face way too many great scoring chances. He has tied Plante for wins but he has played behind some very weak teams in doing so. He is a superstar.
You know what, people always talk about the Oilers having surrounded McDavid with such a poor team around him. Habs fans know this all too well, we haven't exactly surrounded Price with very much either. It seems like yesterday that he was Carter Hart and now he is 31 years old and he still has no shot at a cup here, it's a shame just how poorly this team has been run. He has been our star for what seems like forever and what have we put in front of him? DD and Drouin and Pacioretty heart and soul guys, all of them.His poor play off record shines a bright light on just how many weak line ups he has been stuck with.
If McDavid ever needs someone to talk to .

It is a huge range but all players go through up and down years. 60-80 pts for Drouin moving forward fits IMO.
Lagging hockey sense? I think not. He just does not have the intensity and play with a tempo we want him to.
I think what you are saying is more damning of him than I am.
Playing with speed and tempo are things within his control. Hockey sense is something you either have or you don't.
I think he gets tunnel vision when he carries the puck up the ice with speed. It turns into a turnover, and other times he fails to read that he has some open players when he rushes like that.
Thats just a lack of not knowing your surroundings, and not having the same vision at higher speeds. His play without the puck is also a combination of poor awareness and being soft.
He clearly needs to improve but he is 18 right? Do you think he stays at his level he is today?
I'm talking about drouin
