"The Toronto Maple Leafs were swept by their division rival Detroit Red Wings in the season series, capped off with a 2-1 overtime loss on Wednesday night. It was a pretty even tilt for most of the game, until Detroit eventually took over on the shot clock in the third period before capitalizing on a mistake made by rookie Easton Cowan to win the game in overtime."
"I thought he made some really good plays tonight, You know, he does good things, and there's things he's got to do better. Typical young player in the league. There's plays where he's got to recognize that there's nothing there and make a strong play. But, he makes plays. He made some good plays tonight again, and that's normal, young guy and where he's at. Got to get stronger, better decisions at times."
The Toronto Maple Leafs were swept by their division rival Detroit Red Wings in the season series, culminating in a 2-1 overtime loss. The game was even until Detroit gained control in the third period and capitalized on a rookie turnover by Easton Cowan, who was muscled off the puck by Moritz Seider leading to a 2-on-0 and Dylan Larkin's game-winner. Head coach Craig Berube praised Cowan's positive plays while noting typical rookie decision-making and the need to get stronger. Berube also praised goaltender Joseph Woll's rebound performance, who stopped 39 of 41 shots. The team will quickly shift focus to Friday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights.
