"Since being drafted by Toronto, the hometown forward has continually grown in his game, and in his first season after junior hockey, he will look to push for a spot on the Leafs. Easton Cowan is a skilled forward who has been developing his habits to a more NHL style of play. He excels when he is fast on the forecheck, pressuring mistakes, while using his creativity and puck skills to create offense for both himself and his teammates."
"Cowan's junior career ended with great success as he helped lead the London Knights to a Memorial Cup Championship, winning the Memorial Cup MVP as well as racking up the most points in the tournament and the OHL playoffs too! Cowan may have dropped off in points this past season, compared to the year prior, but as previously mentioned, he has been working with Toronto's coaching staff to try and develop a more complete game, one that can translate better to the NHL."
"This is definitely the most confident I've ever felt - faster, stronger, bigger. So that's going to help me out a lot. I've put in the work this summer. Now, it's just go out there and prove I can play."
Easton Cowan is the Maple Leafs' top prospect who has steadily grown since being drafted. Cowan plays a skilled, fast forechecking style that pressures opponents and uses creativity and puck skills to generate offense for himself and teammates. His junior career culminated with a Memorial Cup Championship, Memorial Cup MVP honors, and leading scoring in both the tournament and OHL playoffs. Cowan has worked with Toronto's development staff to add more NHL-style habits and to become a more complete player, accepting a greater emphasis on two-way play. Cowan's immediate goal is to make Toronto's opening roster out of training camp.
