Sven Baertschi: “Just keep playing. I feel like I’m on the right path here. Keep being physical out there. Keep making my plays.”

I'm not sure if it's management / coaching staff telling Baertschi to be more physical or if he is misinterpreting what they are telling him, but I just don't see the point of this.
He's a skill player, maximize his strengths, which are skating, shooting, making plays.
I understand being strong on the puck, and competing, but why ask him to be physical? You aren't asking Gaudreau to be physical, so why ask Sven?
There has to be some miscommunication here.
I always see Sven trying to throw big hits and that's not what he should be doing. YES he should be competing in scrums for the puck and being strong on his skates and not give up the puck easily, but throwing hits just shouldn't be part of his duties.
