Taking a gander at the CP prospect rankings last year:
1. Wolf, Dustin 39.4%
2. Pelletier, Jakob 62.8%
3. Coronato, Matthew 82.8%
4. Zary, Connor 39.9%
5. Ruzicka, Adam 43.1%
6. Valimaki, Juuso 27.9%
7. Kerins, Rory 56.9% (Run Off)
8. Mackey, Connor (Run Off Loss)
9. Poirier, Jeremie 48.6%
10. Schwindt, Cole 46.9%
Pelletier is 5'10
Coronato is 5'10
Zary is 6'0
The rest of the forwards are probably lower line guys (could add Phillips 5'8 and Pettersen 5'10 to skill guy prospects) - so some skilled size was probably needed. Topi Ronni is 6'2 and last year's 2nd round pick - no idea what kind of prospect he is though.
