Yes and not nearly enough snarl, especially on defense. If Spezza isn't carrying the team offensively he's a detriment because he's so soft and easy to play against. Outside of Neal the Sens are soft.
I could see a shake up trade with the Flyers. Something like.....
Michalek
Weircioch
for
Hartnell
Grossmann
ReginKarlssonLehner
Let's Win It All
Exactly.
Greening
Cowen
Wiercioch
Phillips
Michalek
Gryba
Occasionally:
Spezza
Condra(I unno whats wrong with him)
Smith
Very Stable Genius

Don't forget Neil, although I think its because he is terrible and not for a lack of effort.

Still hesitant to move young players this early in the season especially since we don't have our first rounder this year.
Greening, Neil, Anderson and someone from the defense need to go.
Is Cowen waiver exempt? Send him packing to Bingo for a while.

Lol i completely forgot Neil.
Poor Neil, he is just losing it at hockey.
However, he has consistently made hits to try and wake this team up. At least he has been doing something.

i was trying to propose a trade around cowen for edmonton's first before draft day. i don't think people liked it too much. (the idea was to try to get nurse or morin)

"MandyAlwaysKnows":
As per Cap Geek;
"Jared Cowen is exempt from waivers."
Jared Cowen is on a 1 way deal, I doubt Ottawa would send him down to Binghamton and pay him $1.5M.....
IF he has been terrible then perhaps Coach Luke could help to get him going and being sent down could light a fire under his rear......
I always thought he would play more of a physical game, but that has Not happened with Jared...................

Cowen's problem is that he never learned how to handle the puck. The confidence issue is affecting his positioning. Handling the puck is his inherit problem.

Fortunately/unfortunately ceci only deals with one (decision)

He's still learning. He tried to go for big hits during his first season, but as many rookie defenders do, he forgot about positioning in the process and got burned badly and frequently. Right now, he's trying to improve that positional play, and it's coming at the expense of physicality. It's a necessary, temporary tradeoff so that, in the long run, he can be physically dominant without taking himself out of position in the process.
Gotta remember that this is essentially his second season as a pro, coming off an injury that wiped out an already short NHL season. He looks really rough, but by the end of the year he could be in form, with improved positioning and reasserting his physical game.

Yes, no and NO.
Cowen is not waiver exempt. Bingo will not help him. He should be in the NHL and he obviously is struggling with the weight of expectations of holding out and sucking. He is who we think he is, and he will improve.
12 games in, let's step away from the ledge...although this is frustrating to watch.

To be fair, he's played all of 22 regular season games (only 19 of which were in the NHL) since his rookie year.
