NHL Central Scouting’s David Gregory:
“Nathan MacKinnon makes players around him better, but if you appear to make Nathan MacKinnon better, you’re doing yourself a solid. It’s not as if people think MacKinnon made him better. It’s more Drouin’s ability to play at that level and side-by-side with him. Drouin has responded very well this season, and that’s why we think of him so highly.”
