On the contrary, saillias accused Textcritic of ‘finding a strong person grotesque’. This implies that Martin St. Louis is the definition of a strong person, and anybody who hasn't got leg muscles of that size is not strong. It also states flat out that Textcritic finds strength as such grotesque. These are both silly assertions, and they are what I was taking issue with.

No doubt Johnny Gaudreau could use a few extra pounds of muscle. That doesn't mean that he has to look like a professional bodybuilder. It isn't an either-or proposition.
