I don't think CHL players have enough time to spend in the weight room or rest during the season with the amount of minutes and games they play. It's one reason why guys coming out of U.S. hockey and NCAA are often more developed physically.

Not surprised. Doughty went into rookie camp in shape, but his conditioning and weight were question marks heading into the draft. He pretty much had to lose a lot of weight between the finish of his OHL season and the start of training camp. That's going to lead to a loss of strength and he's pulling up a lot of pounds.
