The Big physical teams make the playoffs.... and the bigger meaner teams win the playoffs.
A lot of people on CP seems not to understand or are embarrassed by the Flames success under Sutter ... it just wasn't artistic enough. They want some mythical magical talented swift skating skilled team that have all their own teeth and no scars that beats the bullies with guile and wit. Since Feaster took over he has replaced any and all grit with talent... and the Flames had the worst season in franchise history.
It is a redundant experiment..... Edmonton has tried it and shown the results.

I agree that we could use some balance of size & skill in our lineup. Picking guys who are huge doesn't necessarily mean they play huge. Hagg & Mantha, for example, are big boys but they apparently shy away from physical play. That's a big red flag for me.
I don't care how big they are as long as they play big.
