Player Discussion Dylan Cozens

[Ice-Tray]

Yes Pinto's metrics and results are excellent as a shutdown role.

Love the little story of Matthews telling him that he’s a hell of a player in the handshake lineup

I disagree. Norris is the better goal scorer, and was working on a solid 200 foot game, but Cozens is a better centreman, is better at carrying the puck, and is better at making plays. The clincher for me will be if Green and company can round out his defensive game like they did for Norris.

Nice hockey trade in my opinion as we need more of what Cozens offers in the position. I miss Norris on the team though, that pp one timer was deadly.

Fair enough, all things being equal though, the down time and injuries swings things to Cozen's side.

Definitely. There is no debate.

Cozens is weak defensively and is not much of a playmaker. That means he’ll have to be a scoring centre…can he do that?

 

[Cosmix]

Really happy he scored. He needed it and the team needed it. I am a Cozens fan and supporter and I still think the Sens are ahead on the trade with the fit and what Cozens brings over Norris.

Overall I found he just ok and I found he lost his balance quite a bit.. He has done that before but I noticed it more last night... I think Cozens lacked good coaching in Buffalo for most of the time he was there . I have no idea what his off seasons have been like either... but he needs to get stronger to reach his upside.

Stronger and a goodly portion of physical play with a tad of meanness.
