    No of course not. I absolutely love the size we now have on D. I also love having puck movers like Dolan and Bailen. My larger point was that, regardless of position, you can't just pigeon hole someone by looking at their H/W on a roster sheet. Some guys play "bigger", some guys not so much.

      THen we agree.

      I won't name anyone, but I can also think of players significantly over 6' tall who played much smaller.

        Abolutely-it's the size of the fight in the dog and not the size of the dog in the fight.

          For DrD's benefit:
          According to the Alberni Valley roster, Evan Tirnonese is an inch taller and 8 pounds heavier than a year ago. http://www.bchl.ca/leagues/rosters_p...layerID=823283


          Edit: Most of the weight might be in his hair, and so might the height.

            In terms of height, it's quite possible. One source thought I'm 6'2, but I'm just barely 6'1.

              As I have been told in the past-every inch counts. No matter where it comes from. I think I might just have gained 8 pounds tonight myself-Jenny made her incredible lasagna and a peanut butter pie for dessert.

                His neck looks thicker. He'll be 5'11 185 in no time.

                    We were out all day, started at a flea market at 6AM, and skipped all meals until we got home. We don't look at the clock any more-hardly wear a wrist watch. The nice thing about being a part time consultant is we can just pick when we want to work and how much. If the economy keeps going as it has though-this could all change.

                      His neck looks thicker? Maybe he was given a shirt as a gift this year with a tighter collar.

                            4 local restaurants have all offerred to sell Jen's peanut butter pie. If the ecomony continues to collapse she may just take them up on it. If we get together I am sure she would make you a pie. You would love it. One of the restaurant owners tasted it and proclaimed-"It makes you want to lick the inside of your brain."

                              I know-but I have to respond to keep my post count up in the off season.

                                I suspect that is about what he will be listed at when he enters RPI.
