Neech Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Seems like another high ceiling pick with the puck moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Boagalott Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hmm, he's 5" taller than Caufield, but he's only 5 lbs heavier. That sounds nutbar light for a dman. It seems like he needs to gain quite a bit of muscle to be an effective dman in the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a growth spurt but haven't added the muscle yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should probably be 6' 185lbs and in time eventually be 195 lbs. Thats 22 lbs he needs to gain to be average size for his height. Sorta reminds me a Malkin, who is 6'4" and was around 180-185 when he was drafted. He was scrony when he was drafted, and he's 194lbs now. However, that is still 10lbs under average weight for his height. Malkin gets away with it because he's a F and has elite talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todays training and diets should fill him out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
