“There’s plenty of room for small players in our game. All these teams that are competitive have small players. What I’m saying is you need some beef around them,” Burke said. “I sent a text this morning to the coach at Boston College, and said ‘Make sure your guys know we still love them.’ There’s a couple players there that we drafted. One of them is quite small — the Gaudreau kid — but he’s quite gifted, as well.
