Easton Cowan and the London Knights are headed to the Memorial Cup Finals on Sunday. The Leafs' exciting and dynamic prospect scored the game winning goal late in the 3rd period, as well as the insurance empty net marker, to help the Knights win 4-2 against the Saginaw Spirit.
Not only has Cowan yet again shown he is clutch when it matters, but he does so with a swagger the Leafs have been missing for quite some time.
After he scored the game winner, he went to the glass and glared at several Saginaw fans in his patented taunting celly. His reasoning behind the act, as he admitted, is just that he enjoys being the player who rains on rival fans' parade.
For Leafs fans, it's hard not to get excited about this kid, as he is everything the Leafs need in a player. He will have a low cap hit, can play in all situations, he is clutch when you need him to be, he plays with an edge, and best of all, he's a winner.
