Jared Nelson Cowen (born January 25, 1991) is a Canadian professional ice hockey player, whose professional rights were last owned by the Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey League (NHL). Cowen was drafted in the first round, ninth overall, by the Ottawa Senators in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft. He began his professional career with the Senators at the end of the 2009–10 season and joined the team full-time in 2011 after completing his junior hockey career with the Spokane Chiefs. Cowen was a member of the Senators organization until a February, 2016, trade to the Maple Leafs, though he ultimately never played a game with Toronto and was bought out by the team in September, 2016. Cowen was born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, but grew up in Allan, Saskatchewan.
Cowen was selected by the Chiefs with the first-overall pick in the 2006 WHL Bantam Draft. He appeared in six regular season games in the 2006–07 season and also six playoff games. In his first full season with the team, he played in 68 games, and had four goals, 14 assists and 18 points, to go along with 62 penalty minutes. The Chiefs won the Ed Chynoweth Cup that season as the league's champions. Cowen played in all 21 playoff games, scoring one goal and adding three assists. As the league's champions, the Chiefs subsequently earned a berth in the 2008 Memorial Cup, where they defeated the Kitchener Rangers by a score of 4-1. Cowen effectively clinched the Chiefs' championship by scoring into an empty net with 56 seconds to play. He was named the Chiefs rookie of the year, and the WHL Western Conference scholastic player of the year.
The 2008–09 season saw Cowen's numbers improve, as he registered seven goals and 14 assists. However, his season was cut short due to a knee injury suffered in a game against the Chilliwack Bruins. He still managed to be ranked as the fourth best skater in the final rankings for the 2009 NHL Draft by the International Scouting Service. He was chosen ninth overall by the Ottawa Senators.
