Yeah so out of shape.....goes on to have a 71 point season, is the all star of the team. I'd rather have an out of shape 71 point, 22 year old player on my team rather than a fitness warrior who can barely make the NHL team as a bottom 6 player.

Fitness, although important, is vastly overblown these days in the NHL when it comes to a per-individual basis. Fitness on a whole team aspect though is very important.
