Hawks turnaround
Hawks are Cooking, the point you're missing is that most of the roster weren't used elsewhere as main man players. I'll use Cam Rigby as an example. Back in his time with the Cannons, he came off the bench. He had his strengths, but wasn't used a great deal as a scoring focus. A shame really, because he was amazingly efficient, did the hard stuff, & could shoot (even back then), but wasn't given the ball like he is now. You can credit Cooks if you like for his development, but Cam's always had the talent, he just wasn't utilised as much, in the more talented rosters.
