Jared Cowen may have been handed a two-game suspension by the NHL on Wednesday, but the Senators defenceman is not planning on changing his style of game as a result. Cowen will miss the next two contests because of his bodycheck on Zemgus Girgensons in the third period of Tuesdays game in Buffalo, in which he made primary contact with the head of the Sabres forward. Speaking to a small group of reporters on Thursday morning, Cowen said he wont change anything if that situation arises again in the future. "Ill make that same hit over and over again. Just because I had a hearing or a suspension isnt going to change it," Cowen said. "It is harder to hit small guys when youre taller. You have to get down to come through instead of just coming through because you have to change your levels. Its a little bit harder, but at the same time, Im not going to change anything." The 22-year-old defenseman insists that he was not targeting Girgensons head on the play and that if he stops playing with that physical edge, he wont be as effective on the ice. "No, I wouldnt do anything differently. If I dont make that hit, I dont play and I dont play well," Cowen added. "Maybe I move a little bit to the left an inch or two and thats the difference. Thats all that it was." "I made a lot of hits in this league before and its the first time its ever been under question. One in a thousand hits is going to be bad or whatever you want to call it. I was making the intention to make a full body contact check and I guess I got a piece of his head." Cowen was under some scrutiny a couple of weeks ago for an errant elbow that caught the head of Red Wings star Pavel Datsyuk, who was forced to miss several games with a concussion. The Sens defenseman says the league never mentioned his past incident with Datsyuk when doling out this two-game suspension. "It was never brought up that this was in relation to that one or that Im on some sort of list now. I think theyre not related at all," Cowen explained. "The Datsyuk one was totally reactional and accidental. This one was more of a missed hit or whatever you want to call it. I hope they werent considering the Datsyuk thing at all because that wouldnt make sense." During his phone hearing with the NHL department of player safety, Cowen argued that the play was not called a penalty on the ice and that Girgensons was not even injured as a result of the hit. In fact, the young Sabres forward immediately got up from the ice and charged towards Cowen. "He didnt say anything, but obviously actions speak louder than words," Cowen said when asked about Girgensons immediate response. "So obviously he was okay, too because he came after me and he wanted to do something. But I guess he was just faking it." The timing of the suspension couldnt have been worse for Cowen, who seemed to finally find his groove in the past two or three games. The young defenceman has been plagued by an inconsistent start to the season and appeared to be turning a corner in the past week. "Playing better and feeling better physically and just getting more into the rhythm, but this shouldnt stop that at all. Its one of those things I cant control. It shouldnt hinder me when I get back out there. Just stay skating and stay in good shape." Amari Cooper Womens Jersey .

Warburton concedes Waghorn has become frustrated over his lack of playing time at Ibrox but has assured the former Leicester man that his time will come.Waghorn has been on the bench for Rangers last four games and has not scored a goal in the Scottish Premiership since the opening day of the season, his only goals since coming when he notched a hat-trick against Queen of the South in the Betfred Cup on September 20. That has led to speculation Waghorn was looking for a move back to England but Warburton has praised the 26-year-old for knuckling down in training and backed him to succeed once he forces his way back into the side.

I said: Not as far as Im aware, Waggy. Far from it.He started five gammes in a row.dddddddddddd He wants to play football, of course he does. When he is starting there are other guys that are frustrated. The decision (assistant manager) David (Weir) and I made was to increase the squad size from 21 to 23 because last year we literally ran out of bodies by the cup final. Waghorn has spent much of his time on Rangers bench since scoring a hat-trick against Queen of the South So we had to add numbers, which we did. That means if everyone is fit and well you are going to have one or two frustrated players. The answer? Work harder, just work harder. The hard work will be recognised and we will pick you. But there is no doubt about Waggys attitude. He is a first-class professional.He is frustrated but he shows it by working harder. When his time comes, which it will do shortly, then Im sure he will be in shape to take it.Upgrade to Sky Sports now to watch Man Utd v Arsenal this Saturday and get the first six months half price!
