I don't think this has anything to do with size. The reason Sutter chose to play big Z is because he didn't like our 4th line center over the last dozen or so games. He sees the center as a play driver, and Lewis is more of a winger than a center in his eyes. That's why the center got to play.
I bet that if he is asked about it in the presser he'd say something along those lines.
