The Toronto Maple Leafs rookie is playing well enough to be handed a chance to do even more.
Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube is giving rookie Easton Cowan a substantial vote in confidence ahead of Monday night's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
As morning skate went on before Sidney Crosby and his unexpectedly good Penguins take the ice against the Leafs at Scotiabank Arena, it was revealed that Cowan will be on the Leafs' top power-play unit for the game.
