I know we talked to you a lot at the beginning of the year about playing with Nate..you obviously had such great chemistry with him, knew where he was going to be back in the day. Seems like you guys are starting to find that a little bit again (...) just how is that coming with him? [x]
"When Drouin was not playing for Tampa, when he stepped away for a bit and was then sent down, I went to Colorado to do a piece on something and MacKinnon pulled me aside and he was like "You gotta talk up Drouin. You gotta talk up Drouin. He's a player. He's a player." Nathan MacKinnon has been talking up Jonathan Drouin since before he was traded to Montreal and I think a lot of people wondered if Drouin would ever play again, I'm rooting for him hugely, I hope this is a great fit for him, and - you know - MacKinnon is going to drag him through."
