Skinner has some of the same characteristics. He doesn't attack someone with the puck, but he's not a pushover either. When he has the puck, there's a better chance that he holds onto it just because a 200+ pound player doesn't get brushed out easily.
He's not a dump and chase player either, so maybe he has some of what Calgary is lacking.

Yep, you're bang on. If Skinner was 6'5, i'd feel differently, but we're talking about 10-12 lbs and an inch.
