I remember Treliving talking last year (?) about conditioning of junior players. If you have a guy who is close to maxing out his physical ability before they hit the NHL, their upside is obviously more limited. On the other hand, if you have a guy who hasn't physically matured yet and isn't known to be a gym rat -- but can still play -- that's the guy you want because you know he still has lots of room to improve.
