Oh man he is a reincarnation of Filatov! Ahhh trade him for a 7th while you have a chance!

That's dumb, no two players stories are the same. Drouin with his bad attitude will still be a quality player. Look at P. Kane, Marchand, Seguin and E. Kane. No one cares about attitude, they just want you to put the puck in the net, they don't pay players to be "a good person".

Lol @ JF12, I know, it's just the similarities are freaky.

The only thing I'll say about P. Kane, Marchand and Seguin;

None of them have left their teams in mid-season, and all have good reputations with their team mates and clubs. Except Boston management trading away Seguin. But I feel that was more due to contract issues with other players and saying he had a bad attitude was more of a justification to trade him away.

As of E. Kane, well, he's an idiot for the way he acted in winnipeg really bad attitude and the locker room tried to get him to realize that he had to change and he didn't accept it and decided to stop playing for the jets. So he got traded. Now he misses practice because he went to the all-star game and partied afterwards. If he keeps that up he won't be in the league.

Probably closer to a Turris situation.

Ya, Turris situation, probably a little frustrated with bad advice from your agent. Kane doesn't have a bad attitude, just made a couple bad choices that a lot of 20 year old millionaires would make and one whore that was proven to be after money.

@JUICE61, Turris situation was different. He and Don Maloney had a contract dispute. Turris felt like he was a top 6 forward and Maloney didn't, eventually getting to a point where Turris wanted out. He eventually signed and reported back to Arizona as soon as a contract was finalized and played until he got traded. What Drouin should be doing right now.

If not drouin to Ottawa, I'd like either Ladd or boedker would be nice. Send back like weircoch a 2nd and peumpel or some kind of prospect.
