Jonathan Drouin joins Colorado Avalanche as a free agent After six seasons with the Canadiens, during which he earned $5.5 million per year, he signs a one-year deal worth US$825,000.
Agrees to one-year deal Drouin inked a one-year, $825,000 contract with Colorado on Saturday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
Impact Drouin had two goals and 29 points in 58 contests with Montreal in 2022-23. He should have an opportunity to serve in a middle-six capacity with the Avalanche next season.

Feeds Harris early Drouin logged an assist, two shots on goal and two penalty minutes over 17:24 of ice time in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Sabres.
Impact Jordan Harris jumped up from the point, and Drouin set him up perfectly for the game's first goal just 1:22 into the first period. His vision and passing ability has led to 26 assists, second-most on the team behind only Nick Suzuki (38), in 24 fewer games. Drouin's in the final year of a deal that he never lived up to, so he'll be on the market this offseason. Still only 28-years-old, Drouin should generate interest.

Makes amends with goal Drouin scored a goal on one shot over 15:36 of ice time in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Tampa Bay.
Impact Drouin beat Andrei Vasilevskiy short side after a nice feed from Denis Gurianov to give Montreal a 2-0 lead in the first period. After watching Saturday night's game in Tampa from the bench as penance for missing a team meeting, Drouin was given ice time Tuesday and made amends with his second tally of the season. It was the fourth straight game (in which he was allowed off the bench) with a point for Drouin, who has been productive since the mid-season break with 15 points over 19 contests.

Sets up two in win Drouin had two assists and four shots on goal over 15:51 of ice time in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Penguins.
Impact Drouin helped out on two of Montreal's four first-period goals. He won a puck battle in the corner against two Pittsburgh defenders that led to Denis Gurianov's strike, then a offensive-zone faceoff win was the key on Joel Edmundson's marker with 11 seconds remaining in the first. Stuck on one goal and a career-low 1.7 shooting percentage, Drouin has been effective as an enabler with 24 assists (45 games), second most on the club behind Nick Suzuki (30 in 68 games).

Impact Drouin finished the Canadiens' road trip strong, picking up three points over his last two games. He set up a Mike Matheson tally early in the third period Sunday. For the season, Drouin has been far more of a playmaker than a finisher, recording one goal, 20 assists, 55 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-13 rating through 40 appearances.

Delivers assist in win Drouin had an assist and one shot on goal over 14:48 of ice time in Friday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.
Impact Drouin snapped a three-game pointless run when he helped on Jesse Ylonen's third-period marker that increased the Canadiens' lead to 4-1. He's registered six points over the seven games since returning from the break, putting a sheen on his trade value ahead of next week's deadline. The 27-year-old never met the expectations Montreal held when it signed him to a six-year deal in 2017. Drouin could be attractive to a team in need of an offensive forward.

Three helpers in Tuesday's win Drouin notched three assists, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 4-0 win over Chicago.
Impact He's still looking for his first goal of the season, but Drouin has been far from quiet lately. The 27-year-old has five helpers in the last two games, and despite missing the back half of January with an upper-body injury, he's racked up 10 assists in his last eight contests. With the Canadiens' offense showing some life and Drouin maintaining a spot on the power play, he could be in line to supply some fantasy value.
