Jonathan Drouin: an opportunity for 21,273 attendees
Tonight will be Jonathan Drouin's official return to the Bell Centre since he left the team last year due to anxiety issues. It will be a very special moment for the Quebecer and for the fans.
It will be a full house at the Bell Centre for the first time in a year and a half. Fans will have the chance to celebrate the return of Jonathan Drouin, and in large numbers.
Tonight will be an opportunity for the people to rectify the situation with number 92 by giving him a wave of priceless love. The fans and the media have not always been easy on the Quebecer, but tonight, all that will officially end. Peace will be established.
The main player has some idea of the kind of reception he will receive, even if he tries not to think about it too much.
The 21,273 fans at the Bell Centre tonight will have a chance to rock the arena, which may be the biggest ovation given to a player since Saku Koivu returned from cancer in 2002, in my opinion.
It will likely be larger than life!
Already the season has started off on the right foot for Drouin, who scored the first goal of the Canadiens' 2021-2022 campaign, tonight's event will be the cherry on top of the sundae.
