I'm interested to see his height/weight at the combine, as the most recent figures I can recall have him up to 6 feet, 176lbs from 5'11, 162-65lbs at the beginning of the season. Size concerns could be somewhat overblown.

Almost certainly not a guy Flames would look at at 4 with three higher-end centers on the board, but damn. If they had pick 5/6/7 I would be beating the drum for Ehlers as well.
Me too. I'd be exploring what we need to give up to acquire pick #5 in addition to our 4th.
