Yeah but, that was two years ago, kinda moot now. When Girdin was drafted there were questions about his two-way game, skating and hesitation to engage physically, he's improved in all those areas of the game. When draft he was 6'1 185 points and at training camp this fall he was 6'2 195 if I recall correctly. Wouldn't be at all surprising to see him come in between 200-205 next traning camp and he continues to develop. Wilingness to engage hasn't been an issue and he was a noted two-way player in the QMJHL last season, playing on the PK as well.
The fact you called him undersized is actually insane too be honest.
