It's not even like he's a big player. He's below average in height.

Jake Virtanen is listed at 6'1
- 210 on the WHL's official site (and 6'1 209 on eliteprospects.com)

That is impressive, pretty much Iginla - like stature for the 18 year old !
He may end up as 6'2 - 215 powerhouse and honestly if we can't get Ekblad and Reinhart I wouldn't be dissapointed to see Virtanen with a flaming C on his chest.
I see Burke going after big guys and, from what I've seen, Virtanen plays with heart and passion every night (which cannot be said about Draissaitl and Dal Colle)
