I am in the size matters camp and agree that Lysell is not small. I think the issue I have with Lysell is that his only go-to seems to be pick up the puck try to stickhandle through everyone including the goalie.

He no doubt has excellent hands and speed. My reservations is how much awareness he has about what's going on around him. It looks pretty low to me and when his go-to doesn't work at the NHL level what do you have in the end?

Ignoring everyone's strengths and weaknesses, I like each of the players around our pick but I think Sillinger is the best hockey player and I select him over Lysell, McTavish, Lucius etc.
