We just need some uninjured players to finish out the year. Maybe one of Poolparty or Gurianov finds their legs in Montreal and get resigned for a couple years on reasonable deals. Drouin is shipped somewhere, not necessarily Colorado

If thats all it took to get a retained Drouin, the Jets should do that.

I know the Jets have a pretty favorable cap situation, so they might be one of the few playoff teams that would have a place for Drouin.

For most everyone else, he has negative value. Better to spend your cap space on someone that moves the needle more.
