I think with Sutter back on the bench, Tre finalize got it through his head that the team needs to be bigger in size in order to be a playoff contender.

That's why they're mediocre

Any player on the ice playing 15 or more minutes with size is an issue and shouldn't be discounted when you're comparing teams by size and weight.
Bah. Unless the lightest and shortest player is routinely going up against the tallest and heaviest player it is utterly meaningless. The average player is no more than a few pounds and inches heavier than the next.

Is a guy like Gudbranson going to give a guy like Gaudreau fits on the ice? Not really. I'd take Gaudreau 10/10 in that battle as he would rarely, if ever end up in the corner with an oaf like that.

So taking the middle of the pack teams (ranked 15th and 16th) for height and weight means that the average player on the average team is 6'1" and 198.5 lbs. Small seems to be under 6'0" and below 195.

Answer me this though, Mirtle. How do you measure "elite"?
