Its not like Pronger playing 30+ minutes a game, these guys will play the entire 90-120 minutes and have to maintain a mental sharpness while they're at it. Totally different set of circumstances.

I saw some games where they had a GPS on some players. When they came out some of them had run about 10 km?
Great stamina, but there is room in the game for walking/standing around. A lot of the exertion comes in bursts. Like interval training.
