Leon Draisaitl - 6'2, 204
Anthony Mantha - 6'4, 190
Nikita Zadorov - 6'4, 200
Darnell Nurse - 6'4, 185
Griffin Reinhart - 6'4, 205
Mirco Mueller - 6'3, 195
Jacob De La Rose - 6'3, 187
Kevin Hayes - 6'3, 205

All of these guys are players that the scouts are all excited about, and their size is one of the things identified in each of their bios as a big strength. So how is Jankowski, at 6'4, 202, a tall skinny drink of water, but Darnell Nurse at 6'4, 185, or Kevin Hayes at 6'3, 205, ready to compete because of their physical gifts?

Maybe he just has a smaller frame. Draisaitl and Nurse for example are reportedly up to 215 and 209 respectively.
