Now back to last night, the Flyers are not exactly a force to be reckoned with, but the Canadiens played a solid game and the leaders really stood up. - Karine Hains

I'd say put Drouin up in the press box for a game.....but who would you put in?
So limit/cut/manage his ice time accordingly until he wakes up. Light a fire under him and piss him off......see if he actually has character or if he's just in it for the McNuggets.
And i think that was only the 2nd, maybe 3rd empty net goal of the season for Domi? - Snots33_77

I think Drouin is a late-bloomer in terms of mental maturity. He has the raw talent. I would give him one more season to show he is progressing in the right direction before giving any thought to benching or trading him. The kid needs ice time to prove himself, even if he keeps disappointing. Guys with talent like that need to play their way out of a funk and you can't do that while riding the pine.
My advice would be : make him see a personal growth coach, life coach, therapist, or something to help him finish growing up and reach his potential. And let it be known in no uncertain terms that next season is his time to prove himself one way or the other, or he'll be finding a new team or enjoying his buyout while improving his putting. - GalacticStone
Can you be a personal growth coach to your buddy Bolts91? Thank you.

or just make a video of every time he's tried to go through an entire defence on his own this year. and if after 7 hours of video footage he still doesn't get it, then bring in the Love Guru.
