They’re not the norm. Sorry, that’s the reality. Referencing Makar/Fox/Norris D is not a good argument.

Small defenders need to be high level in other areas to compensate, otherwise they’re done a dozen 3rd pair fodder. “Competent” is a loose net.

Interested to see what Cowan and Minten can do with better caliber linemates.

Cowan is the type of player that I believe could mesh with Matthews, Tavares, or Nylander.
It makes the possible lineup options quite interesting if he makes the team next year.

Is Bellows injured?

Is Bellows injured?

He played last game? Pretty sure he finished the game as well.

He was mostly invisible today from what I read on Twitter

He was mostly invisible today from what I read on Twitter

Lineups had him as the 13th forward today. Too bad the game was behind a paywall, as it would be nice to see just how much ice he got.

Where are you reading the reports of him being invisible?

You have asked and I have asked no reply

I don't know if North America is going to be for him.

 

[SprDaVE]

I don't know if North America is going to be for him.

Because he suffered facial damage (or maybe a concussion?) due to a high stick?

What a truly odd comment.

What a truly odd comment.

For the first point, that would the second concussion in relatively quick succession, not good.

Just seems like he's having a tough go of it early over here, although he is undersized and not exactly the fleetest of foot.

He was injured from a high stick, so it's likely a facial injury. They haven't specified what it is though so it's possible it could be worse.

But really, it's just a lot of bad luck that has nothing to do with size.

Any reports

He’s only 9 but said cowen was not that good and jagger was really good. Take that with a grain of salt but his hockey knowledge is pretty high.

I thought Cowan was a center but he's listed as a RW for London on hockeydb.com and as a LW on World Junior roster. Is that going to help him or hurt him vs. just developing as a center?

I think he's a winger rather than a center

I remember Nylander and Marner listed as centers at lower levels and they both ended up as wingers, I don't think Cowan will be any different

Never know though he does remind me of point a bit and he’s strong defensively and bigger than marner or will be

I heard the same from other people.well it's easy to cut 18 year Olds
But I doubt anyone anyone says Cowan is outclassed
Hockey canada knows what Cowan can do .if he gets gut I'm sure they will win gold .lol
