If the GM wants big then I think it’s harder to maintain that size is just a bonus and they will skew their picks.

The 2023 class looked really good, it’s a bit concerning the steps Morin and Honzek have taken since being drafted going backwards. But we still have time.
That’s why it’s important they nail the picks this time around and stick to the list and not get blinded by any bias of size. Lindstrom is concerning and I would hope they leave him off our list due to injury concerns. That’s the type of player that could blind a team because he’s big.
