I think the problem with what you're saying is you seem to be reading selectively.
The vast majority of discussion about Gaudreau here over three threads has been about his size. Then you show up and toss out a "why isn't anyone talking about his size" type comment. Just seemed kind of odd and like you haven't been paying attention to the overall discussion at all.
No, the poster that I quoted is the one I'm commenting on because I've seen the "too small to play" BS comment from him about RNH before. And in case you couldn't tell I'm being completely sarcastic about the size thing. I think it's absolutely ridiculous when you have guys like St. Louis, Giroux, Eberle, Pavelski etc.. doing just fine at their size. Gaudreau is one of those players that's either going to boom or turn out like Gerbe (another former college star that had hype) and most of it is because he really came out of no where. You're really just going to have to wait and see. The "he's the real deal/plays like Datsyuk" discussion is very premature.
