Martin St-Louis Cracks Down on Player Who Missed Team Meeting
Recently, it was shared that Jonathan Drouin was unexpectedly absent from today's practice session.
At the time, we were unsure of the cause, speculating it might have been due to a treatment day. However, that was not the case, as the reason was entirely different.
Head coach it appears Martin St-Louis has disclosed the following:
"Jonathan Drouin remained at the hotel as he was late for the team meeting this morning. He may be excluded from tomorrow's match, but Martin St-Louis has not confirmed this."
Via Renaud Lavoie, TVA Sports
St-Louis emphasized the significance of adhering to this team rule, calling it "non-negotiable."
"Martin St-Louis mentions that Jonathan Drouin missed a team meeting, resulting in him not being allowed to practice today and potentially not playing tomorrow. He labeled it as 'non-negotiable'."

Coming off a 9-5 loss to the Florida Panthers, it makes sense that St-Louis would crack down on not attending a meeting.
It appears that Drouin has lost some favour with his head coach.
