Big, agile, mobile, and hostile - works for me. Kadri may well turn out to be a good player, but big, hardrock defencemen are like gold in the NHL. If he can move the puck at all, this guy will be the steal of the '09 draft. Remember that Cowen was projected to go top five before he got hurt.
Definitely disagree there. Cowen's size/skating combination is phenomenal and very comparable to Hedman's. His offensive game keeps him from being on par with VH, but he's got a lot of time to develop it.
Keep in mind it was Cowen and the Chiefs who shut down Kadri and the Rangers in the Mem. Cup.
Kadri's a good player, too. But I'm very happy the Sens landed Cowen.
And no he doesnt STILL HAVE a wonky knee. Are you retareded? Did you watch the reports on the prospects post draft?
7 teams had their top doctors analyze his knee, and the recovery after surgery. all 7 said his knee is 100% fixed, and not a concern going forward. Translation. PERFECT SURGERY, PERFECT RECOVERY, he knee is as healthy as yours and mine. He is at NO risk of getting reinjured their. As for Kadri? The kids nowhere near as nhl ready. Small, weak, shot that wouldnt crack and eggshell.
Uh dumbass...if you look at Toronto and Ottawas needs going into that draft you will see that Ottawa needed a big mean mobile shutdown dman. Toronto needed a playmaking center. Ottawa already has Spezza and Regin. Why get Kadri? Toronto had Schenn. So they dont need a Cowen. ill tell you one thing, if the Sens wouldve drafted Kadri,Toronto take Cowen id be scared to play the leafs. What would Spezza & Kadri gonna do vs Scheen + Cowen? Oh and Cowen is a more complete player than Schenn. Idiot.
Jordan= Asshole.

Why is anyone comparing Kadri to Cowen? Because the Senators tried to trade up to take Kadri?
They got a steal with Cowen at 9, and I think that in the long run it's better for the Senators.
The Leafs are just going to find a way to ruin Kadri anyways. Or they'll trade him for a has-been before he even plays a game for the Leafs.

Nazem Kadri could skate circles around Cowen and his wonky knee.
