It's not the size, it's how you use it. Who are the players with elite skills and vision? Draft them.

Again just from having watched Keller at the U18s I'm not sure he'll ever be as big or as strong as Yzerman or Sakic, he just looked so tiny out there. Maybe it was an illusion. Maybe he'll grow more. I know his height/weight stats but when I saw him the first time I thought he looked closer in size to Gaudreau than some of the other players we're talking about.
I'm very curious what his combine height/weight will be. I'd be curious to know what teams think about his frame and how much they think he can fill out. For now I'm putting him in the tiny player category which drops him for me.
If I thought he would fill out to 5'11, 195 I'd have him a lot higher.
