Average age: 27.6 years old as of October 1, 2013


Derek Smith is the median age (half the roster is younger, half is older), with a birthday of October 13, 1984. Joey MacDonald is the oldest player (Feb 7, 1980) and Sean Monahan is the youngest (Oct 12, 1994). This is the first season since the 1989-90 season without a player born in the 1970s on the roster (assuming they don't go out and acquire anyone later).

Smith, Glencross, and MacDonald are all the median weight of 197 pounds. Kris Russel (173 lbs) is the lightest player and Brian McGrattan (235 lbs) is the heaviest.

The median height is 6'1". There are six players that height. The tallest and shortest players still in Calgary are the two on the IR, Cammalleri (5'9") and Breen (6'7"). On the active roster, Russell and Hudler are the shortest (5'10") and Colborne is the tallest (6'5").

Thanks for those facts!
Do you happen to have last year's stats to compare?
