Cowan isn't in the same stratosphere. Easy and obvious pass by the Jets.
Gritty lol.Trading for Cole Perfetti the Leafs get their 3rd centre/ future 2nd line centre.
The Jets get Easton Cowan a gritty two way forward who is one of the top prospects outside of the NHL.
Pretty much thisPerfetti is just worth more right now. WPG wouldn't.
No. The little bit that I've see him play. He was a total floater. Not a line driver.You don’t think he plays w some jam ?
Perfetti was a healthy scratch in 4 (the first four before the series was essentially over) of the 5 playoff games vs the Avs last season. He was 22 at the time so not exactly too young to be playing postseason hockey.Just bad for WPG
and the reports that are coming out of winnipeg are really damning... he wants a long term deal...Perfetti was a healthy scratch in 4 (the first four before the series was essentially over) of the 5 playoff games vs the Avs last season. He was 22 at the time so not exactly too young to be playing postseason hockey.
Not the greatest sign for his development with that club... seeing they had no faith to put him on the ice when the games mattered most.
I have no idea how GMs value him league wide. His 2023-24 stats were solid with 19 Gs and a +13.
But Winnipeg doesn't value him all that highly if he's not in their playoff plans as a 22 year old coming off a regular season with 71 games played... only to find himself on nacho duty vs the Avs.
No wonder this cat is still unsigned as a RFA.
The question wasn’t whether he was a line driver or not . It was if he played w grit . Pim ish per game over the 2 seasons tells me he’s at least engaged physically ; ( beyond watching him a handful of times ) .No. The little bit that I've see him play. He was a total floater. Not a line driver.
PM is not a factor of grit. Yap at a Ref and get a couple game misconducts. And you are already at close to 1/3 a penalty minute per game. For a season. Dude is small. 5'10" and 171 lbs. Lots of small guys light up in Jr..The question wasn’t whether he was a line driver or not . It was if he played w grit .

5 11 185 so while not big im not sure id call him small . He not afraid of contact at all . Will play along the boards and the corners / dirty areas . He’s got lots of skill but to me he’s no shrinking violet . Anyway looks like matter of opinion /semantics herePM is not a factor of grit. Yap at a Ref and get a couple game misconducts.

I’m not sure they would but Perfetti is no scrubWhy would the Leafs trade their top prospect for a middling RFA they can't afford to sign?
True, but he's not exactly at the top of the Jets' depth chart.I’m not sure they would but Perfetti is no scrub
He’s young w a ton of potential . I think his true breakout is this year. I also like Cowan a lot for the record .. but for this coming season id easily rather ColeTrue, but he's not exactly at the top of the Jets' depth chart.
He's not a marginal player, but he's hardly a star either, and he's unsigned.
If the Leafs had cap space the answer would be a lot different.He’s young w a ton of potential . I think his true breakout is this year. I also like Cowan a lot for the record .. but for this coming season id easily rather Cole
They might have some if they find a taker for Kampf or deal Robertson . But I mostly agree w your statementIf the Leafs had cap space the answer would be a lot different.
Pointless for either team, Jets need their more developed guy more than a 19 year old stuck playing in either the NHL or OHL only, and Cowan is also a CenterTrading for Cole Perfetti the Leafs get their 3rd centre/ future 2nd line centre.
The Jets get Easton Cowan a gritty two way forward who is one of the top prospects outside of the NHL.
This sounds like a guy who only watches Marner once he crosses the opposing teams blue line.No one in leaf nation is expecting Cowan to replicate the point production of Marner - that’s Marners thing through and through. He’s a point guy.
Even if Cowan tops out at a 60 point player - it will be enough to offset the loss in points Marner provides, with the the cap savings that the leafs are in need of. Cowan is excellent off the rush, can find the open space out there, and gets to the goal mouth to finish plays. Marner is not that guy, he’s more of a finess guy like Nylander and Matthews (somewhat).
We already have our top wingers in Nylander and Knies; and Domi is excellent on the top line with Matthews.
Marner is becoming redundant in Toronto.
I'd counter with Nino Niederreiter for Nylander.Trading for Cole Perfetti the Leafs get their 3rd centre/ future 2nd line centre.

Perfetti's 19 goals would be 4th on the Sens, ahead of Stutzle.Uhm Perfetti is being over rated in this thread
He has never even hit 40 points as of yet and I've never been a fan of his
I don\t know why the Leafs would trade Cowan for him makes no sense
Cowan will probably end up better
Yah cause that’s the same thing…I'd counter with Nino Niederreiter for Nylander.
