They've got size alright. They've just got it concentrated in their big, mobile defense. IMO their defense is underrated and a big part of why they shut down other teams.
Hedman 6'6
Coburn 6'5
Sustr 6'7
Harrison 6'2
Koekkoek 6'2
Their defense and the shutdown work of Brian Boyle are what impressed me the most from that first game. Barely gave the Pens a sniff. Even on the powerplay the Pens weren't generating a ton of high quality chances.
