Jonathan Drouin Uses Elite Hockey Knowledge to Single Handedly Screw the Montreal Canadiens

The Montreal Canadiens have had a season full of ups and downs. It has been quite dramatic as the team has move up and down the standings.

There have been many chaotic and historic moments along the way, including one embarrassing overtime loss to the Seattle Kraken.

Last night, the team made it to overtime again as they were playing the Colorado Avalanche, but this time it was a remarkable feat as they rallied from down 4-1 in the 3rd period.

The game eventually went to a shootout where the comeback effort fell just a little bit short.

Charlie Coyle and Patrik Laine both scored before Brock Nelson put the puck past Sam Montembeault for the game-winner.

Apparently though, Nelson was not slated to even take the attempt. Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar revealed after the game that he was going to go with former Hab Jonathan Drouin instead, but the forward had a better idea.

Drouin, who knows Montembeault well, knew that Brock Nelson's move would work on him, so he gave up his chance to be a hero for the benefit of his team.

Of course, Nelson was just acquired by the Avalanche in a trade with the Islanders, a move that has already begun to pay dividends.

Now both the Avalanche and Canadiens appear to be heading to the playoffs this season so it will be interesting to see how far they can go.

Who knows, maybe the two clubs will even face each other in the Stanley Cup final.
