Can you name a prospect of any of those teams, or any other, that has dominated the NCAA like Gaudreau, as a freshman and sophomore, and then just playing with the opposition as a junior? Size is irrelevant when you're exceptional and Gaudreau has been exceptional his whole hockey playing life. Fact of the matter is that if Gaudreau was drafted at the size his is right now, he would have gone in the first round and people would be comparing him to Patrick Kane and not concerned about his size at all.
