There's a reason why most pre-draft write-ups on young small centers usually say, "will most likely be playing the wing in the NHL".
I know the history of Point's skating (he was slow), and I know the pre-draft history of most players in the league. Perhaps YOU should go back and look at MY history of posting, and you'll see that. The sentence was two separate thoughts, the first thought, "Coronato isn't exactly a world class skater" has nothing to do with "or a defensive stalwart like Point". I know why Point was taken in the third round, thanks.

The point is that not being a world class skater or defensive stalwart makes Coronato just like Point.
Tell me what difference 5’10” and 186 versus 6’0” and 175 makes in any real sense.
And to answer your question - who knows? I know Suzuki, Granlund, Paveklski, Perfetti, Duchene, Domi, Johnston, Jarvis, Hughes, Trochek are all under 6 feet.
