he says "like" a lot too. Give him a break though he's probably nervous and speaking his 2nd language.
Yeah I know. It was just too much for me this time. There are a lot of native English-speaking sports players who say "you know" way too much too. It seems to be a thing.

So Wayne Simmonds weights 183 lbs per the Flyers website at 6'2". On CBSportsline he is 175 lbs.
I thought he was much bigger guy. Vanek weighs 25 + lbs more.

Would have figured he weighs more too since he plays quite physical as well. I'm 6'0" 185 and no means a big guy, pretty darn skinny actually..so 6'2" 175-183 is very skinny.

6'2" 175 lbs means we are talking Miller skinny..

I do not care how many times Grigs says "you know"...........I just care how many times he scores a goal, assists on a goal, stays out of the penalty box, and covers his defensive responsibilities

CBSportsline is probably years out of date. The Flyers listing is probably from this year's or last year's weigh-in on the first day of camp. Considering his age it would be expected that he'd have added a solid 8 pounds of muscle over the past few years.

I thought the Sabres looked pretty solid in their first game. The centers played well and Ott got in a chipper. I was impressed as you guys shalacked what will be the first of many on Ilya Bryzgalaxyquest.

Rob Ray was the worst "y'know" guy I've ever noticed and he's a native English speaker. He said it as a grace note before nearly every sentence, it was distracting as hell once you realized it was happening. He's gotten much better in recent seasons. Grigorenko gets a pass, he seems like an intelligent kid who has a lot on his plate.
