The NHL is somewhat of a follower league and Vegas won the cup with a lot of size. Yes Jonathan Marchessault won the MVP, but I think teams are realizing that smaller skilled players can be important contributors, but you can't have too many of them. Same on the backend. You can have 1 or 2 smaller skilled dmen, but that's can't be how your blueline is built.
