Jonathan Drouin has been fun to watch as he's gone from early-season healthy scratch to growing his two-way game and maturing into an important part of the Avalanche offense. This is an appreciation tweet
@returnofaj Reminds me of how bednar transformed vals game. So great to see
@returnofaj Kudos to the coaching staff and, of course, Drouin. By the way, the Minny feed is horrible.
@returnofaj Sure has! Salary caps suck! Cos he’s the perfect fit for this team! He will probably go to the highest bidder and have half the success
@returnofaj What does your gut tell you about the possibility of a Drouin extension this offseason, AJ? Obviously it won’t be cheap…
@returnofaj With what he has done this year, I think you make the trades you need to get him 4 million for four years. That’s a home town discount for how good he’s been.
@returnofaj Wish the Avs could afford to keep him, but someone is going to give him a nice, fat contract, and I wish him the best.
