We just learned that Jonathan Drouin made a very unusual move this morning at practice
Regarding the Jonathan Drouin situation and the fact that he will be in uniform tonight against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Renaud Lavoie has just revealed a curious piece of information.
"Martin St-Louis said that Jonathan Drouin will be dressed tonight. He skated for an hour this morning, which is far from usual on a game day.
Renaud Lavoie"
This is indeed a very unusual move.
What does it mean, knowing that St-Louis has already confirmed that Drouin will be in uniform?
According to some experts consulted, it could mean that he will be on the bench with his teammates "out of obligation" and "due to a lack of players," but he may not actually play.
"Being dressed and playing minutes are two different things.
Martin St-Louis"
In short, this is a developing story, but what Drouin did this morning speaks volumes, and it's far from certain that he will be sent onto the ice.
Stay tuned!
