The Ottawa Senators' first round pick (9th overall) in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, Jared Cowen, has made the final Team Canada roster for the 2010 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championship. The tournament starts on December 26th and takes place in Regina and Saskatoon.

Cowen, a 6'5", 220lb product of Allan, SK is one of three 2009 draft picks to make the team on the blueline, Ryan Ellis and Calvin de Haan being the other two. Cowen is captain of the Spokane Chiefs of the WHL, and currently has 5 G, 12 A, 38 PIM and is +16 after 27 games.

Cowen is one of three Ottawa Senators prospects playing in the tournament, the other two being Jakob Silfverberg and Andre Petersson, both with Team Sweden.

I just realized that he’ll be in the tournament when Spokane plays their one game of the season here. Crap. Dammit. I even have a crew coming up from there to see it with.

Boo-urns.

I was really disappointed when I checked the Giants’ schedule only to see that the Chiefs weren’t coming to town during my 4 months in Vancouver.

I should look into when Soo comes to Ottawa… maybe I can see the Lehnerinator in action.

its not the schedule, but it’s arguably the worst thing I’ve seen on a major junior team’s website.

It’s amazing how awful that website is compared to, say, the 67s website.

In other news, Ottawa doesn’t play the Soo again this season. Dang.

Are the WJCs even televised?

I’d like to see him in action too.

They're on TSN in Canada

Don’t know if you’ll get to see much of them down there, though.

Up here in Canada, yes

They are a huge event here. Most hockey fans I know watch them every year. TSN shows all Team Canada games, and a bunch of other ones as well. It’s fantastic hockey, my favourite sporting event outside of Senators playoff hockey (and far less heartbreaking!)

From what I’ve heard, NHL Network will play all USA games in the states, I think.
