Genuinely, what is the argument that Cowan is a better prospect than Wood, Yager, Simashev, Reinbacher, and others as some leafs fans have stated. It’s just silly.

Agree with this and I'm also not very high on Wood who to me seems like a worse version of Mantha, not in playing style but in terms of big guys who just don't translate like many thought they would.Simashev, Reinbacher no. There's no reason for him to be above them.
However, there's absolutely an argument over guys like Yager, Barlow, Sale and Honzek.
Cowan set an OHL record for longest point streak since the 90s, he had 96 points in 54 games which is a better point per game than all of other chlers in the draft outside of Musty and Cristall. Second best point per game in the Ohl outside of Musty, and the a Red Tilson Finalist. I also think his floor is safer than the others, should carve out at minimum a hardworking grinder that can play up and down the lineup.
There is no need the Leafs just have to cut down on mistakes and execute better.Whos in favor of Cowan playing in playoffs?
Yes I agree wit your analysis, Im thinking for psychological reasons theres always been players in past playoffs that provide spark, Its that factor that I imagine he can add.Agree with this and I'm also not very high on Wood who to me seems like a worse version of Mantha, not in playing style but in terms of big guys who just don't translate like many thought they would.
Cowan is going to carve out a role in the middle 6 and be able to play up and down and have a decent career.
