Kind of, but not really if they aren't being cashed. Not all on him. Chances are nice but at the end of the day if you don't score on them they are a 0 on the scoreboard.

Not gonna lie--I would love for the Avs to bring him on in a scouting/talent evaluation capacity.
Because that's what he's good at , scouting. We allways talk that people should be in the right place for success , well Dorion's place is scouting.
Yep, too bad I have ZERO faith the Avs will actually go outside the organization to really jostle the draft/development department.
He, like a lot of the Avs this season, are getting blocked or missing the net entirely.

Whoever the f*** this guy is needs to be sent back to St. Louis.
Hire Dorion as AGM/Director of Scouting & Development, whatever he wants as long as he's not making trades.

Not Great, Bob!
Oh yeah, I was just thinking about that guy! That's our Head Ventriloquist Dummy.
I never said he's a lock for 50 points so I won't comment but why is it you really want to hear from them?? Lol. I did think he was going to do better than he's shown though. Dude just f***ing sucks. Habs fans warned us.
I agree with you at 100%

He sucks too, but unlike Drouin he knows how to produce in streaks on top lines.
We're going to hate him in the playoffs, though.
Sure. That's definitely true. But an 8 game sample size is also way too small to simply write him off completely, especially when those underlying numbers are still pretty good.
Like here's the thing. If Drouin also had poor analytics to go along with the poor production.... Very bad. Or, if Drouin didn't have a 250+ game sample size over multiple seasons of consistent 0.5 PPG production... Again, very bad.
But, because he does have both of those things, I think it's premature to write him off entirely after just games. Keep in mind he's literally just 3 points away from a 0.5 PPG pace, with 1 primary assist being lost to an offside technicality already as well.
An 8 game sample size is simply too small to be jumping to conclusions either way. Really, 8 games is only starting to approach a sample size to where you can start to see possible trends, nevermind definitive evaluations.

Yikes.
Tufte on the 2nd line
O'Connor on the 3rd
MacDermid on the 4th.
Tatar and Drouin scratched. Byram hurt (again)
This team is in trouble.

Drouin and tuna weren’t getting it done to begin with. Tufte really did deserve to make the roster after his preseason.

What kind of message Bednar is sending to CMAC by scratching Drouin and Tatar tonight?
Turns out cheap players are cheap for a reason.

And another 10.5 million spent on Colton/Wood/Ryjo, who have combined for an incredible zero points 5v5.
Another stunningly impressive off-season by Cmac.

Pretty short sighted comment. So many variables at play to broad stroke it like that is pretty oafish

Death, Taxes, and Nammerus' contempt for CMac. You've got to love it.

We don’t know what players we could have signed. Cap space plays a large roll in this, it’s no magic, it’s common sense.
