This is why I wear earbuds everywhere, because if I was in tune with the sheeple around me, I would grow enraged quickly

Height is relevant, just not as relevant as other areas or as relevant as it used to be, IMO. If there are two players, one 6'2" and one 5'10" with the same skill set and potential, I would take the 6'2" player but if the 5'10" player is slightly more talented with a somewhat higher upside, I'd probably take him.

I agree. I just don't think size can be dismissed. Bigger people have bigger frames and can put on more weight. Ghost can add muscle, but there's only so much muscle he can add before it begins affecting his athleticism.

Morin put on 20 lbs of muscle in one year and it didn't seem to affect his skating at all.

Bellemare, who was raised in France, said he signed with #Flyers over Montreal because his fiancé is "half American"

Which half?

No doubt. Size should never be dismissed. I just think relying on it TOO much could blind scouts and cause them to miss talented players.

Had the pleasure of interviewing Pierre-Edouard Bellemare at some length today. Extremely bright, articulate and enthusiastic guy.

Seen a few tweets like this. Bellemare has been a fan favorite where ever he's played

This was the first I heard of it. I knew the Blackhawks had interest a couple/few years ago, but Bellemare got injured on a vicious cheap shot and ended up staying in Europe

As someone said, it's more the artificial pumpkin flavored drinks which spread Can't Even Syndrome. That's the more accurate statement.

I for one, am not a fan of pumpkin bread, rolls, etc, but I do like pumpkin pie. I'm a weird person.
