Regina Pats' Coach Curtis Hunt on Linden Rowat:

"His maturity level was just unbelievable the last two years, and even beyond his numbers I think he has done a real good job of changing the things that were maybe a staple in his play, and is just more aggressive and patient. He is really good at reading the rushes and reading the play."

"He's got a tremendous work ethic, whether it be in games, practice or in his sessions with the goaltender coach, and he's one of those kids that's a quiet leader in our room as well."

Development areas:

"He just needs to continue his learning in how to read the rush and understand the options on the rush for the opposing team, both with possession and with dump pucks. He needs to also continue to play with a predator mentality and be aggressive in the goal. You look at guys like Luongo who are big and when they get out of the net there is not a lot of twine to shoot at - we just want him to learn how to play aggressive all the time and trust his defensemen."
