The way the NHL is these days, 6'2" isn't really considered big any more, and neither is 205. The Flames have only a few guys I'd consider big NHLers: Brouwer, Jankowski, Jagr, Stone, Monahan, Hathaway and Hamilton. Ferland, too, by poundage I guess.
Physical play is by Hathaway, Gio, Tkachuk, Ferland, Brouwer (more than he gets credit for) and sometimes Stone.
