Thread: What is Price and Drouin worth
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TJTwolf</b></div><div>It'd be a definite pass on Drouin for the Avs at that price. Drouin hasn't been consistent enough nor has he shown the work ethic needed to succeed in how the Avs now play. Admittedly the thought of Drouin re-united with MacK, IF it worked, is something to salivate over, but it's a huge gamble. I think you might get a future 1st from the Avs for Drouin IF MTL decided to cut their losses, but that's probably about all. Maybe a bottom 6 or B/C level prospect on top.</div></div>

To give an idea of what I'd guess at as value, and we're assuming in this that the Avs improve or at least stay level with last season's showing, and if MTL are looking for a LD. I believe whilst Meloche is right handed he plays a lot on the left and he's French Canadian (and I know that really means little but MTL have historically favoured signing Fr-Can boys for obvious reasons) so maybe 1st 2020 plus Meloche (or Josh Anderson as another option). Forwards you're probably looking at Greer/Kamenev types. It's a bit of a downgrade on what MTL gave up to get him but fair value I would say, on current form/showing so far. Especially with the pick unprotected as the Avs would hope/expect it to be middle to lower end of the draft but if COL fall back (and it's possible with the loss of Barrie's production at the back end and a very young D), then they could make a steal.
