Weekly Question: How Long Is The Leash On The 3rd Pairing?

One of the main weaknesses for the Senators to start the year has been the third pairing of Jared Cowen and Mark Borowiecki. In this week's question, I ask: how long should their leash be?

If you follow the Ottawa Senators even just a bit, you know that one of the biggest issues amongst fans is the team defence, and specifically the play of the third pairing, which includes Mark Borowiecki and Jared Cowen. I have been saying for the longest time that this pairing is not good enough, and the results so far speak for themselves.
