Staple Cowen to the bench. It's been 5 games now? He's atrocious. Too short of a tournament to wait around for him to figure out. I also thought he was atrocious in the memorial cup final game, so maybe he just doesn't have it in big games.
He'll fit in well with the Leafs. That's their modus operandi.

Canadian teams used to be hard-working in your face tougher with the edge of scoring

Now they're just a bunch of hot dogs and dysfunctional through a coach with weed wacker haircut

Yeah, I think that’s what I miss, that hard work. Although I do feel Yager showed some it.
 
This Canadian team reminds me somewhat of the Habs during Julien's 2nd stint here. Despite most times getting tons of shots per game the team as a whole couldn't score for shit because most shots were from the perimeter without traffic in front and easy saves for the goalie for the most part.

Lots of shots don't always mean they were great scoring chances.
 
Someone will have to explain to me why it's OK for guys like Celebrini to go the NCAA route and still be under the good graces of TC, but it's literally haram for Hage.
They'll take the superstars like Celebrini, Toews, Makar etc but favour CHL players in all other cases.

USA has the same favouritism but side with NCAA kids.
