Since the start of the season with the Colorado Avalanche, Drouin has moved from the 1st line, to the 2nd line, to the 3rd line, to the 4th line, before spending games in the stands after being scratched by his head coach.
However, since his return to the lineup, and more specifically over the last 15 games, he is a transformed player!
He has solid defensive stats, he is involved, and he produces!
An unrecognizable Jonathan Drouin, but we are so happy for him.
Over the last 15 games, he has accumulated:
- 12 points
- Nearly 18 minutes of ice time.
Ps. By comparison, Pierre-Luc Dubois has a meager 1 point in his last 11 games.
In short, after a nine-game pointless streak, Drouin is now one of the most sought-after players by his coach, an unexpected turnaround.
In the shorter term, over his last four games, Drouin has accumulated five points, bringing his total to seven points in his last eight games.
In total this season, Drouin has 14 points in 31 games.
The strong streak he is currently on is major for the future in the NHL of the 28-year-old forward.
Let's remember that he will be a free agent next summer, currently earning $825,000 per year.
