Post-Game Talk: Traverse City tournament. Leafs finish with 2-1 record.

[horner]

Sova and Frasca have been very solid.

Frasca in particular seems like he could be a good depth Marlies player.

Frasca has a good shot

 

[Dion TheFluff]

good to hear Minten and Cowen have looked really good so far considering both were kind of considered reaches at the time

 

[horner]

2-2 lol

Frasca from a great play from Tverberg

Tverberg has had a good game

 

[weems]

Both Minten and Tverberg have had good second periods.

Cowan hasn't had his best game and has looked pretty tired.

Frasca, Weiss and Sova have had decent games.

Well played game with tons of pace. Like how aggressive and direct the team has played.

They have certainly established the pace the graduates of this team will bring to camp which is positive.

 

[Fogelhund]

why isn't Knies playing?

To give other kids a look, who they need to look at. They know what they have in Knies.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Cowan nice goal.

 

[thinkblue]

Cowan!

 

[HockeyVirus]

Cossa is pretty overrated eh

 

[kerk]

lisowsky is definitely a guy to watch this year

 

[SprDaVE]

Lisowsky has a wicked wrister. What a shot.

4-3 Leafs

 

[weems]

Cowan nice goal.

Minten started the whole sequence with winning a good puck battle behind the net.

Minten can become a really effective player especially if he continues to get a bit quicker and stronger.

 

[SprDaVE]

Peksa seems like a very high risk goaltender from the little I know him lol

 

[SprDaVE]

Great pass from Cowan to Lisowsky.

 

[horner]

Cowen nice pass

 

[SprDaVE]

And now the Red Wings are resorting to cheap shots and high hits. It's just a prospect game.

 

[SprDaVE]

5-4 . Peksa probably needs to get that but seems like it deflected off the defenseman.

 

[thinkblue]

Last min goal..6-5

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Leafs regain the lead with 30 seconds left, Cowan made it happen yet again. Good little tournament for him

Leafs regain the lead with 30 seconds left, Cowan made it happen yet again. Good little tournament for him

He didn't play his best but still found a way to impact the game. An encouraging sign

 

[LeafChief]

Lisowsky has a cannon.

Cowan really exceeded my expectations at this tournament. Holy moly.

 

[Bellefour20]

Within the span of the last minute the Leafs took the lead and the chat was reporting Babcock was out as coach of the CBJ.

 

[SprDaVE]

I tried to keep an eye on the lesser known players. I really liked Frasca and Sova. Mastrisimone showed some good stuff too. The others for me didn't really stand out.

Cowan impressed quite a bit, if he plays like that in the OHL he will dominate. Minten and Tverberg were really good. I expected more from Voit and Hirvonen in this tournament, especially the latter. Kokkonen and Niemela looked great. Villeneuve was very good as well.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Do they get anything for this tournament? like the NBA has a summer league with an MVP and a championship

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Cowen and Minten being the 2 best players is funny, some people still complain about them to this day; and annoyingly still will.
