This is the place where Drouin started his NHL career before getting traded to the Canadiens two summers ago in exchange for defenceman Mikhail Sergachev. “It’s always cool,” Drouin said about being back in Tampa. “I saw Phil (Danault) and (the Predators’ Ryan Hartman) just caught it in the air and made a nice play,” Drouin said. Obviously, the scrutiny of the media, there’s not as many guys in Tampa, other than when Montreal and Toronto and those big cities come. It’s nice to go to the grocery store and get a little hi, little nice comments sometimes.
