My issue is simply that the Leafs (or any team) should be trying to ice the best lineup of what is available to them. It is fine to trade off UFAs, sell current assets for future ones, but when looking at the players available, I think there is a duty to dress the best 23 guys. I would have thought, based on limited viewings (of mostly the leafs), that Cowen could make that group.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
