History

2006-07: Drazenovic plodded through a mediocre regular season. He missed a chunk of games due to injury, and didn’t enjoy the success that many 20-year-olds do against mostly younger competition in their final junior season. But the centerman came up big when it counted, totaling 19 points in 15 playoff games. Many of his goals and points were game winners or key goals in helping the Cougars make a decent playoff run.
