Easton Cowan taunts fans after win, embraces villain role against Saginaw
Easton Cowan scored the game winning goal to push the London Knights to the Memorial Cup Finals and revealed why he taunted Saginaw fans with patented celly.
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.
"I just like that celly. I think it's kind of cool. You kind of stare down the fans and it gets the boys going."
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.
