193lb according to OHL's site. I read somewhere else that he had bulked up a bit over the summer though.
Regardless, he's bigger and seems more suited to the NHL than Baertchi at this point so his current physical ability must be an argument towards keeping him and not sending him back to Junior. Management AND the majority of fans would love nothing more than to steer his development path straight into the NHL.
So who is this third party that will be responsible for sending him down to the OHL? Can the media really brainwash fans and force management into making poor decisions? Because they seem to be the only ones wanting him to go back to juniors (and I'm sure the flames opposition).
