NHL Draft: Ottawa Senators Select Jared Cowen
The official Ottawa Senators page has a recap here.
Jared Cowen made his name last year as a Memorial Cup winning member of the Spokane Chiefs and the comparisons that were thrown around at that time were that of Zdeno Chara. Physically he looks big, strong and rangy. Offensively he has that kind of contribution and if he, despite the pressure that we are putting on him, blossoms into half the player that Chara he is going to be a solid NHL player for years to come.

I'm excited about this pick.
I think Cowen and Wiercioch would make a heck of a pairing, although it won’t be for a few seasons.

Definitely a great pick
Coming into the draft, Cowen was the guy I wanted but I didn’t think he would make it to #9.
This is a guy who was ranked at #4 earlier and only fell because of his injury, which apparently won’t be a problem. It also balances out well with Karlsson from last year. Now we have both a great offensive D-man and and a very solid defensive D-man for the future. Now if only we could find some good forwards….
I think Cowen will be a full-time roster player in 2010-11.

I really did not think Cowen would fall to us, but I am so happy he did. We could use a big presence like him on the back end, and I have a feeling he’ll be a phenomenal player for us someday.

Even though I wanted Cowen to go to my Leafs, all I say is please take good care of him. he is a good kiddo. He’s gonna be a beast.
(843): the red head has a bf
(1-843): just because there's a goalie doesn't mean u can't score
