He's 6'3" 239 lbs and actually uses his size. I'd say he provides some size and physicality as well, which the Flames desperately need. It was painfully obvious in the playoffs that the team needs to get bigger, and Ovechkin definitely helps in that department.
Yes the team has other issues, and outside of goaltending I think this is the biggest one. I guess we'll just have to disagree as I think Ovi would be a great addition.
