There are definitely people here that think players are limited by it. There's a lot of it being thrown around in here. People saying Granlund projects as nothing more than a 3rd line C or whatever and thus shouldn't be considered with top-line potential Baertschi. It's just incorrect. In almost any thread about prospects you'll have an array of posts with absolute opinions on players purely based on their perceived skill set, what media outlets say, and where they were drafted. Which are fine for forming guesses, but there are no absolutes. You may not speak in absolutes, but many here do.
