New trios from the Avalanche: Jonathan Drouin's position causes a huge reaction from Montreal Canadiens fans according to two journalists' predictions
Over the past few hours, following the signing of Jonathan Drouin, the best journalist of the Colorado Avalanche revealed the team's probable trios to start the next season.
Here they are:
The Avalanche lineup would look like this...
Drouin-MacKinnon-Rantanen
Lehkonen-Johansen-Nichushkin
Wood-Colton-O'Connor
Cogliano-Meyers-Olofsson
Toews-Makar
Byram-Manson
Girard-Johnson
Georgiev
Francouz
You can guess that Jonathan Drouin's position, alongside Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen, is causing a huge reaction from the fans.
"Drouin is going to make 60-70 pts playing with MacKinnon & Rantanen, isn't he?" - HabsLinks
Another Avalanche journalist, Drew Livingstone, is going in exactly the same direction:
If this is confirmed, do you believe that Jonathan Drouin can amass more than 60 points? We wish it for him!
Drouin, 28 years old, is going to earn $825,000 next season and he will try to amass more than 55 points for the first time in his career.
This will be really interesting to watch, but he is likely to have the opportunity to truly flourish in Colorado with MacKinnon and Rantanen.
