The NHL season hasn't even started bro.... wait till he does his 9 games, then you can truly determine his effectiveness.
Players in the NHL are bigger, faster, stronger. Everybody knows beefing up does wonders for your game in every aspect. It's quite rare for players not to be building more muscle/mass during the off season.
Pretty much RNH and Skinner are working on that while rehabbing their injuries.. I always love it when people just point to MSL and how small players can be elite. He was undrafted and nobody wanted him. He worked his way through the AHL and it took him like
6/7 years to be truly be "effective". Kane is the player you wanna compare Shinny to. (of course its a stretch, he was 1st overall)
Kassian is a power forward dude... if he isn't big and strong he won't be effective.. lol

let them just develop playing by getting a feel for the speed in the nhl and chemistry with their linemates...
