In fact, he took part in a ball hockey game as part of the National Bank Open yesterday.
“I started skating again and I started playing hockey,” said Jonathan Drouin. It feels good to get back on the ice and put physiotherapy aside.
“I knew what to expect because I had suffered the same injury to my other wrist.”
Drouin is looking forward to reconnecting with his Canadiens teammates on a regular basis. He is feverish at the idea of working under the orders of Martin St-Louis.
“I can’t wait to practice and play matches. I can’t wait to embark on all of this with him. I believe we are heading in the right direction. We had a great repechage.”
At the end of the ball hockey game, he was very generous with the fans. He took several photos and signed several autographs.
Behind Felix
Drouin is a regular customer at the Montreal tennis tournament.
“I come every summer. I attend games more often when it’s the men, but I also come when the women are in action, said the striker.
“In recent years, my favorite players were Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer. This year, I will line up behind Félix Auger-Aliassime.
“I find him calm even when things are not going well. You can’t see any difference in his behavior. When you see him move on the court, you see that he is an exceptional athlete.
