If you watch the games he controls the play every time and he so confident with the Puck he makes everyone around him better he's even doing the little things hitting and he's back checking like crazy One bad game and you remove the last 12 games ? He's been getting nothing but praise every game and he deserves it

I think he meant more last season than this playoff.

Either way, Drouin was fine last year as a 19-20 year old. He only had 32 points but the numbers show if he got more ice time, he would have been around 40-45 in the 70 games he played.

Problem is it seemed TB never wanted him to succeed. And the only reason he got another shot was because a freak injury to Stanmer.

He played and started every game last year.

Every guy in every sport has nagging injuries they play through.

IMO Stevie Y prefers to use his young guys much like Detroit does.

Whether it's right or wrong.

You're not getting my point I said he gets injured too much which is true he plays through them all year and it decreases his play why do you think The Falcons don't want to re-sign their franchise leading receiver best in history because they know his knees and ankles are not holding up

"Every guy in every sport has nagging injuries they play through.", says otherwise.

And

Because he's 34, players his age tend to not get resigned no matter what they've done for their teams in the past. It's a what have you done for me lately league.

You said he only missed five games I said he's always injured which is true that's what I'm trying to tell you and the reason why the Falcons cut him is because he is declining and his knees and ankles are The reason why he does not have a job right now

This is nothing to do about his age he's a good wide receiver but is useless if he's not playing at 100% on the field which he won't be

Then why doesn't Boldin have a job? He's 35 that's why. Same for White.

Every guy is always injured then by your logic. They all play dinged up.

What ? He doesn't have a job because he's asking for ridiculous money have you not seen Bolden play I think he was leading the 49ers the last two years catches touchdowns and yards he's trying to get a big payday he's just trying to swing for the fences one last time

No I'm pretty serious either one of them can go first overall and it's not really a big loss They are both really good players The only reason why Matthews probably has a little lead is because he's a center but I think it's head to head right now

That was more my point... but its also the fact that a lot of grief is given when we give up stuff for an unproven commodity. Yes Drouin plays a spot we need and yea so far he seems to do it pretty well... But I'm not sold enough to give away everything for him. He might come here and play well with the guys on the top line and he might not and we see how he acts when he's not getting top minutes.

And Tampa didn't want him to succeed? Why would they not want a 3rd overall pick to succeed? He was injured and they wanted to ease him back he whined so they said fine sit in the minors where you'll get top minutes but only get picked on by NHL players instead of the big guys. They were being cautious, then he freaked and played the woe is me card. No part is bigger than the whole, you start playing into that and its nothing but trouble.

He's not that good anymore. Woods is better than White right now.
