Terrible argument. You don't score goals by being big and strong. You score goals by shooting the puck. Dubois has an excellent shot. His size/strength will help his game translate to the NHL more easily. He'll still be above average in size at the NHL level. His size/strength is a positive, a good asset, it's something to like about him and it's something that will help him succeed in the NHL.

Trying to spin it as a negative is ass backwards. It's a nonsensical argument.

You believe otherwise? Show us all the guys rated to go top 5 who scored goals in junior because they were big and then failed at the NHL level because they were still big. Such a silly argument, we hear it every year and it literally makes no sense.
