All you had to do was watch Dubnyk across the rink from Coreau to see the difference. They are virtually the same size and one of them moves with agility and urgency and the other looks like a giant coming out of his slumber.
Being a big body is pretty cool, but you have to be able to move. NHL teams are way too skilled moving the puck to hope you can take sweet time getting into position.
Yes, but you should also see big bodies the first several years in the league. Both Dubnyk and Bishop were pretty terrible to start. I dont think he is that good, certainly not Dubnyk good who has first round guy in part because he had freakish athleticism to go with being huge.
I don't think Coreau is more than a NHL back-up but again I guess doesn't that elevate him over a couple of the guys unlikely to have NHL careers at all we are voting for now.
Coreau and Nosek probably should get some credit for playing for the Wings if we are actually voting for them, I sort of assumed we weren't treating them as prospects anymore at this point as the only explanation they weren't off the board.
Voted Turgeon since it seemed like we were after pure prospects to this point.
