Jonathan Drouin has a wonderful pair of hands and a nose for the net --
and he let the Acadie-Bathurst Titan know it with a boatload of dekes
and a sweet pass in Halifax on Sunday:
Can Jonathan Drouin be stopped?
The 17-year-old left wing with the Halifax Mooseheads leads the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League with 32 goals and 57 assists in but 42 games played this season.
So we shouldn't be surprised that Drouin has a wonderful pair of hands and a nose for the net, and he let the Acadie-Bathurst Titan know it with a boatload of dekes
and a sweet pass in Halifax on Sunday:
As you can see, he can deke defenders out of their hockey pants, hit, and dish.
Drouin is draft eligible in 2013 -- how high do you think he goes in the NHL entry draft this June in New Jersey?
