Correct about St. Louis. He got a lot stronger after his stint with the Flames. If you watch any games of him as a Flame, he was badly outmatched physically. You could tell he had skill, but was knocked off the puck easily and just looked like one of those skill guys who's game didn't translate to the NHL.
