After Colorado Avalanche's game three loss, veteran forward Jonathan Drouin took accountability and shocked fans with his latest comments.
«I didn't like my last game very much.»
The Colorado Avalanche now find themselves trailing 2-1 in the series to the Dallas Stars, and although they aren't in a bad position, they would definitely rather be ahead, then behind.
Mackenzie Blackwood has easily been the best player for the Colorado Avalanche this series, but the team in front of him needs to step it up, as they haven't given him any support besides game one.
Jonathan Drouin feels like he can do a better job, and help Blackwood out.
During Friday's practice, Meghan Angley of Guerilla Sports spoke with Drouin, and one of the topics they touched on was the Colorado Avalanche's terrible power play.
«Every time we're getting ready for a game or a series, we know what they're going to do,» Drouin reveals. «We know what's open, we know what's there, but sometimes they're trying to kill their penalty as good as we're trying to score."
Drouin believes that if the Avalanche just stick to their game plan, they will be able to claw themselves back into this series.
"Sticking to the game plan is cliche to say,» Drouin said. «The last game you saw right away it was going to be a tight game, but we got to find a way to create offense in the o-zone.»

«Me, especially with our line got to get going a little bit here and find a way to score."
Drouin can help more offensively. He only has two points in the three games, which isn't terrible, but he can definitely up his game and be more of a threat out there for the Avalanche.
"I didn't like my last game very much,» Drouin stated. «I didn't create anything... The games have been tight. You're trying to be on top of everyone.»
«You try to bounce on your chances around the net when you get some. I feel comfortable, it's just got to be a little better."
