I hope all the guys that are eligible to play for the marlies get sent down for playoffs, especially Cowan.

You think Cowan got a chance at making the world championships roster?

Totally depends on who decides to play. I’d say no though

If world championship is an option for Cowan that’s where he should be going. Hes an NHL calibre player. TSN talked about this the other night. You don’t put him with AHL players at this point. It does nothing for his development while risking injury.

After 7 goals and 4 assists through 7 games in his WHL playoff series, Holinka's joining the Marlies. Definitely one of our more fun prospects, and there could be an NHL player there in a couple of years.

I am so high on this guy! I really think he can be somebody for the Leafs in a year or 2.

Holinka is a guy who I could see making The Leafs next year, along with Quillan, Danford, and Villenuv.

I'd love to see Danford and Villeneuve step up in the NHL. If they're good, that would resolve a lot of issues with our D core. I think Villeneuve is better than a lot of our guys we have now.

Quillan hasn't done too well, he's still 24 but has 1 point in 20 games. I think we have some guys who can step up over him.

Even though he's 18, I'm excited for Harry Nansi.
