Skill > Size
Toews, Anisimov, Hjalmarsson, Seabrook, Ladd all play a pretty heavy game and/or use their size to their advantage.

Yes we would take Patrick Kane #1. Yes we would sign Panarin if we could.

The discussion at the moment is taking Nylander vs guys like Tkachuk/Dubois. Do the Chicago Blackhawks excelling change the answer? I'm not sure how it does. Size doesn't matter because you think CHI wins without it? Questionable assertion IMO.
