Again, you're arguing against something that no one is saying.

Black and blue means the bottom 6 needs to be bigger, stronger and meaner. Our top 6 needs more size and strength mixed with skill. Our defense needs to be able to move some forwards from the front of the net and win board battles.

You're talking about the size and strength of players, but you seem to have missed the main point of my previous post.
I'm hearing Burke talk about a specific style of play. "A team that likes it rough". Bruins hockey, Kings hockey. That sort of thing.
Now I admit that I might be reading it wrong and you might be reading it right, but do you see how there's a difference between what we're talking about here?
