Jonathan Drouin Makes A Scoring Return
3 years agoMontreal Canadiens forward Jonathan Drouin returned from a one-game absence with his sixth goal of the season in Saturday's 5-2 loss to Florida. He tied the game at one and Nick Suzuki gave Montreal the lead in the second period, but the Canadiens were unable to hold on. Drouin missed Thursday's 4-0 loss to Carolina with an illness but was deemed healthy enough to log over 23 minutes here. Montreal rolled with only 16 skaters due to lineup issues caused by COVID-19. It was also announced after the game that the Canadiens will pause all activities until Thursday for safety reasons. They'll try to shake off the virus and return to action on Jan. 12. Drouin will continue the season with 17 points in 27 games. It's not been a great season for him, but the same can be said about the whole team.
