Big hit on Tanev, generates a turnover, gets a great shot on net.

I really don’t get this “Cozens doesn’t hit” narrative.

Brother, any narrative coming out of Buffalo must be taken with grain of salt.

O'Reilly was washed up, won cup/selke/conn smythe year after. Reinhart was questionable IQ and defensively, is one of the best scorers in the game. etc. etc. etc.

We should be going full force trying to get Peterka somehow too.

Cozens has been very good since coming here & seems to enjoy playing here which is great. In future, Ott needs to find these young guys that need a change in scenery with some size, skill & toughness who can be difference makers. I'd like to see them get Mathews Knies out of Toronto or Crouse out of Utah.

20 Fantasy Thoughts: Brady Tkachuk willing Senators to end playoff drought

Imagine writing this little bit

Where I think Tkachuk can benefit specifically is that Cozens takes some of the pressure off the forward group as a whole and makes the unit more flexible. Cozens allows Giroux to move to wing, giving Tkachuk both Tim Stutzle and Giroux, two great offensive players, on his line to work with and help him generate offence.

Giroux moving to the wing because we got Cozens. Nailed it o_O

Early review from me is that they seem harder to play against with Cozens in that spot.
He’s good in tight spots, the cycle is improved, and again feels like more offensive zone time etc.

👍

Remember when Buffalo posters came and said he has bottom 1/10th in the league IQ.

To be fair, Pronman has said scouts have issues with his hockey IQ too, so it’s not just a Sabres fan thing.

I’m not seeing it so far though. He hasn’t done a single thing that had me thinking he’s dumb out there so it is kind of a strange assessment.
 
He is an under the radar type of player. At least so far.

Not flashy and you don't really notice him, but then I see those stats about #1 in slot shots and rebounds since he joined the Senators?

Solid player, hopefully he can remain consistent.

According to some people (Sabres fans), if you don’t put a guy through the boards it doesn’t really count as a hit.
 
Buffalo fans just saying what they saw. We were talking about trading Tkachuk not more than a month ago and imagine the scouting reports some would deliver on Chabot if we traded him before this season.

That team has been struggling for years and that has a huge effect on developing players, not to mention every mistake is amplified out the ass when you're already down on someone. It's very possible that what both Ottawa and Buffalo fans have seen is true even though the opinions are almost opposite. We've only had 5 games to evaluate at a time everything is going our way.

Maybe that's why I'm also so incensed when I see a mistake but Chabot. I still would give him terrible review today while he's on our team. Part of that may be that he plays more like a 5-6M and has for the last 2-3 years without any real progress.

Pronman graded the trade A- Ottawa C+ Buffalo and sees 1st line C upside with cozens.. not sure why he threw the hockey sense rubbing scouts the wrong way comment in there ; nor was he specific on when those comments may have been made. If it was in his draft year they may be rationalizing picking someone above him. He went 7th anyway which isn't too shabby.

I have not questioned his IQ in any viewings thus far. I think he can be coached on position a little but.. He is a really good package and fit compared to Norris.
our 2nd line is a lot better with the trade. I'm blown away by the upgrade the Sens got here

Lol.

The second sentence doesn't make any sense. The commas don't make sense, it looks like a run-on sentence to me.

You didn’t notice his two game winning goals?

Damn, that's just lazy. It takes a minute to look up the Senators lines before writing that crap.

It's really difficult to follow all 32 teams, and I understand that for those generic low tier blogs that there is some incentive to pump out generic content, but they should at least do their homework. It's not hard to Google daily faceoff to double check, even know Giroux has never been a C regularly in Ottawa.
