Gallagher, 5'9'' 179, the 5th rounder coming off an impressive rookie season.
Gionta, 5'7'' 174, the veteran captain.

If it was up to Canadien fans chances are not all 4 players make it to the regular season but if they do they're forced to have at least 2 of them in the top 6 or have a third line with at least 2 of em.

I like size as well, and the fact that Canadien fans always want to add size and lose a small player is pretty good evidence that it's a nice quality to have.
Briere hasn't played there yet. We have to wait to see how that turns out.

last year they went with the 3 small guys and that was amazing..

Gallagher also plays with reckless abandon so if one of the Flames wee-3 plays like him it would make room for another small guy.

Thanks for the research and input.....

Any other teams with 3 small guys in their top 9.

Buffalo has Gerbe and Ennis..... as their tiny 2 .... I think that was the reason that they moved Byron to the Flames.
