Knights’ Easton Cowan named Cogeco OHL Player of the Week
Toronto, ON – The Ontario Hockey League today announced that Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Easton Cowan of the London Knights is the Cogeco OHL Player of the Week, recording two goals, three assists and five points in two contests.
Cowan helped the Knights bounce back from a Game 1 loss to the Oshawa Generals with a five-point performance on Saturday, scoring twice and adding three assists in a 5-2 win. The first star effort tied him for the franchise record for most playoff points in Knights history with 89. His second career five-point effort in an OHL Championship Final contest makes him the latest player to do so since Mark Scheifele of the 2013 Barrie Colts.
A soon-to-be 20-year-old from Mount Brydges, Ont., the 2024 Red Tilson Trophy winner sits second among all post-season scorers with 32 points (10-22-32) in 14 games. Cowan recorded 69 points (29-40-69) in 46 regular season games and has totaled 220 points (84-136-220) over 175 career regular season contests. Originally selected 25th overall by the Knights in the 2021 OHL Priority Selection, the 2024 OHL champion has added 89 points (29-60-89) in 57 career playoff games. Cowan was the Toronto Maple Leafs’ 28th overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft.
