I'm not too concerned about the size of Demidov, Catton, Helenius, Eiserman etc. They're all knocking on the door to 6 feet and are all at least another full season away from playing in the NHL and have time to grow. I'd put more weight on their playing style and whether it's translatable to the NHL.
Having said that, if the Habs have Celebrini/Demidov/Lindstrom as their top 3 forwards by a landslide and all are gone when we pick, that would mean there is at least one (likely more) impact D still on the board when Habs pick. Habs would be crazy not to pick an impact Dman if the available forwards are all a tier below on their draft board.
