Both will hopefully learn where the line is in terms of physicality, and become great assets going forward. Smith especially with his offensive skill could become a great prospect.

The amount of penalties in what equates to be a preseason allstar-type game irked me.
They both look pretty bad out there IMO.

I can't really see either of them making it in roles other then 7th defender/13th forward enforcers.

It's kind of ironic that one fan base is simultaneously drooling over one prospect who has to overcome a size issue and two prospects that aren't special in any way except for size.

I'd put my money on the former. If Kanzig and Smith were average sized would there be any talk about them at all? I think that answers where their actual hockey skills are at.
