Nothing new for Cowen since he wasn't saying the "right things" when he was scratched last year either.
I personally think Cowen is a touch better than he was at that time last year for sure but I guess the organization feels like it's time to turn up the heat.
He may have been "a touch better" but he's getting $1M more this year than last ($3.7M over $2.7M) and he clearly did not earn last year's salary. Being benched last year did not improve his effort. He's still talking how hard it is because you may be pulled out of the lineup. Boo. Hoo. Grow a pair! There is no way the Sens will pay him $4.5M next year. Mark my words. If he has not improved both his on-ice play and his attitude (and I don't think either will happen) he will be traded or waived.
