Jude Drouin

Joseph Jude Drouin (born October 28, 1948) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey forward.

He helped the New York Islanders reach the NHL playoff semifinals three-straight seasons from 1975 to 1977.

Drouin turned professional with the Houston Apollos of the Central Hockey League (CHL), scoring 68 points in 60 games, and earning his first NHL playing time with the Canadiens in the 1968–69 season.

The 1969–70 season found Drouin in the minors again, this time for the powerhouse Nova Scotia Voyageurs, where he dominated with 106 points in 65 games, winning the Dudley "Red" Garrett Memorial Award for rookie of the year and leading the American Hockey League (AHL) in scoring.

The trade rejuvenated Drouin, and he was an effective two-way player for three seasons with the up-and-coming Islanders.
