Weave Posted January 1, 2021 Report Posted January 1, 2021 Dylan Cozens has been a horse. My goodness does he control play with is size, strength, and work. No doubt we've found our power forward. The only question will be is he our next 2C, or our next 1RW. Quote
Pimlach Posted January 1, 2021 Report Posted January 1, 2021 Just saw Cozen get the first goal versus Finland. Then he got the last one. He looks like a man against boys. Really good looking player here. I hope he ends up with Staal as his center this year. Quote

No doubt we've found our power forward. The only question will be is he our next 2C, or our next 1RW. It's a great question. Generally we could be reasonably satisfied with the thought that he's probably going to be a really good player either way, but it's kind of dizzying to think of our current and future C depth outlook if Cozens is on wing. We have nothing in the centre pipeline if he doesn't end up there. Quote
dudacek Posted January 1, 2021 Author Report Posted January 1, 2021 I officially hate Trevor Zegras. He celebrates goals with a Bryan Smolinski smirk. Unforgivable. Quote

It will be interesting to see how the Cozens vs. Zegras careers evolve. I was torn back in 2019 on which player to take when our pick was up. I liked both, but today I LOVE Cozen's overall game despite Zegras' high skill. Quote

I hope he naturally progresses into center ice, but boy his work along the boards and down low is a thing of beauty. He could be one hell of a wing. Quote

His speed is an asset in back checking and because he is often the first forward back he plays deep and supports the D very well. Probably a combination of the coach’s wishes and centre being in his DNA. Quote

Pimlach Posted January 1, 2021 Report Posted January 1, 2021 I just saw Ryan Johnson drill one in for USA vs SWE. Nice looking kid this Johnson. I can see him getting bigger and he already is smart. Quote

We’ve had excellent performances before (Mittelstadt, Reinhart) but never four, and all them producing. 3 Quote

Nice to see we may have four players in this tournament that can be NHL players - gotta get the development side down. Cozens looks like a man versus boys and he wears that C well.

matter2003 Posted January 1, 2021 Report Posted January 1, 2021 Cozens dominating and is the key player and co-captain on Team Canada leading the tourney in points...great to see a Sabre in this spot and looks like we might really have something great with this kid... Are there any examples of players with this level of dominance at the WJC's flaming out in the NHL? Quote
Brawndo Posted January 1, 2021 Report Posted January 1, 2021 Cozens is now tied with Tavares for Career WJC Points Quote

French Collection Posted January 1, 2021 Report Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Matchups set for tomorrow’s Quarterfinals. Russia vs Germany Askarov has been average. Stuetzle and Peterka magic? Finland vs Sweden A great rivalry, one contender will be gone. Semi-Finnal? Canada vs Czechia Should not be a problem if they come out with their hair on fire. Quinn’s turn? USA vs Slovakia They have found their stride and Zegras is the man. Johnson on the rise? Edited January 1, 2021 by French Collection Quote
