Look at what Cozens has done in Ottawa so far.
2nd star of the game saturday with an assist.
Game winning goal yesterday against Detroit
17 hits in 2 games
Thanks Buffalo!
Guys we don't have a number one center
Casey Middlestadt is a playmaker? Yeah, for the opposing team. Most negative plus/minus on the Avs, playing with better talent than ever before. The guy is a bust
ANOTHER GOAL FOR COZENS IN ANOTHER OTTAWA WIN
This trade should be good for both teams. We will see of course but both are quality players.
The look of hope and optimism in Norris' eyes lmfao
Cozens was not ever going to improve in Buffalo- too much pressure, too young, too little game face this season. He worked out early on because the Sabres were starved for talent and he had the requisite attitude to do work. He got frustrated- understandably- and needed to move. Letting him go elsewhere and blossom beats him contributing nothing as a third line center while gobbling up an amount of money he no longer warrants. He's young and has room to grow…but his patience with the franchise has flagged. Kudos to Rasmus Dahlin for not phoning it in the way Cozens has.
Tage needs to stay on wing and be allowed to be JUST a goal scorer without the defensive focus required of a center. His best work comes in the offensive zone where he can create space.
Assistant coaching needs to change. Lindy Ruff is the right coach for the team, I like Seth Appert, but Marty Willford and Matt Ellis need to go. Their continued presence on the bench smacks of an internal mandate from the Pegulas to me. In either case, time to upgrade the remainder of the coaching staff.
