Tanguay injured himself on a freak fall into the boards did he not? I didn't see that particular game so I'm not sure but I don't think his size had anything to do with it.

Rip on Stajan all you want but the has been a piece of iron this season. Takes cheapshot hits to the head, questionable blindside hits and just plain gets beat on by everyone and keeps going like it doesn't even phase him. What more do you want from the guy?

Sorry I just don't understand the "logic" you are trying to base your argument on.
Backlund has been better but as much as everyone wants to overrate him he still gets pushed around physically. Cerevenka has been far from fine when
playing this year and not a strong or physical player at all. Tanguay is certainly not big or strong. Stajan has been at best average in terms of strength/physicality this year.

I would assume the logic is that the Flames forwards are below average, if not bottom of the league, when it comes to size, strength, physicality etc.
