Personally, I'm not concerned about Domi's size because he's built like a tank and can hang on to the puck on top of everything else he's capable of.

Yeah that's why I would take Domi over Horvat. All the reports for Horvat say he's ideally a 2nd line center and lacks elite offensive skills and skating to be 1st line. If he's not a point a game player in the OHL I really don't like his chances of being a top 6 forward in the NHL. That said if Domi is taken and Horvat is available I wouldn't be disappointed if the Flames picked him as he looks like he could be a useful player in the mould of a Martin Hanzal. He's actually the type of player the Oilers should be targeting.
