You keep attempting to argue that Drouin 'won'.

Yes he did. He is playing for TB.

There is absolutely no point to be garnered from this with respect to Gaudreau though.
Look, I'm not trying to fight with you. I notice you have a pretty entrenched and combative tone regarding this topic. I'm certainly not going to change your mind. I just don't see this the same way some do. I'm a little old school, maybe I side with the players a bit too much at times, we all have our biases.

I'm old enough to remember Gilmour and Nieuwendyk walking out in a fury. Although it is a different era and it's very hard to compare, but people are ultimately unpredictable. Push them far enough, they will bend. Push them too far, they will break. Everyone's different. I'm just really hoping that the Flames aren't picking right now to make a point.
