Ex-Canadiens Forward Still Looking For New Team After Buyout

Drouin still being a UFA at this point in the summer comes after he had an ugly 2025-26 season. He posted just four goals and 24 points in 64 games split between the New York Islanders and St. Louis Blues. This was a notable decrease in offensive production from the 2013 first-round pick, as he had 11 goals and 37 points in just 43 games with the Colorado Avalanche during the 2024-25 season.
