Matt "Freight train" Cooke review!

Other

Halloween Matt Cooke (92 overall)

Division: 2/3 Position: RD Pairing: Macinis- Cooke Price: 130-150k (bought for 140k) Synergies: 3 HH Card: https://hutdb.net/17/view/11609

Synergies Active: HH, CG, B, TW

Skating: 8/10 You would probably think that Cooke's pretty slow but, Cooke can definitely put the burners on wheel around D no problem. Don't get me wrong he's no Bure but he can definitely keep up.

Shooting: 8.5/10 I initially thought Cooke would miss the net a lot because of his accuracy but I've had no problems with him, anytime I had the puck in the slot it would go in 9/10 times. Definitely can pick it!

Hands; 6/10 You gotta understand he's no Patty Kane and that you will probably not find yourself decking defenders with him anyway. Although, he's been able to Deke goalies with no problem for me.

Checking: 11/10 I mean cmon the dude a complete wrecking ball. Id say he's crushed pretty much every player on each team with ease. Is there much more to say?

Defense: 8/10 I was actually pleasantly surprised with Cooke ability to play Defense. He's poke checking have been pretty dead on for me. I thought he'd be a huge liability but he's played solid D for me. The only problem I occasionally face with him is that he's sometimes out of position other than that he's been great.

If your looking for a Offensive Defensemen that loves jumping in on the rush and that can absolutely lay the body he's your guy. This was my first review let me know how I did, tell me if you disagree/agree with me. Hope I did alright :)
