The thing none of us know is what's been said to Drouin. Maybe Drouin was promised something and the team never followed through, maybe he was treated like crap from the coach and management. The timing of him being sent down is really douchy by the team too, they're not treating him the best and there were rumors of him asking for a trade last year. Maybe the team had a deal in place and was telling him all kinds of things to string him along and now he knows that he's had enough.

I'm not 100% taking his side or the teams side. I just think there is a lot more at play here then it seems and I don't think it's fair to just say "he's acting like a spoiled brat"
