The leafs even have Kadri listed as 6ft 185 , when they drafted him from the London Knights he was 5-10 170 , apparently he has grown and put on some weight ..

Prust
Tootoo

Well off the ones playing right now in the NHL.

The only guy that is 5'10 and smaller that is pretty good fighter is Jordin Tootoo.

I would of said Mike Brown as well, but he's just an inch taller.

Aaron Asham would be also up there as well although 5'11" and even though he lost to Brown. I'm sure his next fight he'll give a good showing.

Michael Haley would of been my #1 pick, but he's in AHL.

Ya I'm sure he was over your house last night with all the other players you know personally like Prust, Rinaldo... you probably know Gretzky too, right? ... and you just asked him to hop on the scale for you.

As a matter of fact "YES" I do !! I worked with his father Walter , have known Wayne all his life , have even spent time at his corrage he used to own in Long Point Ontario ..

When you have been around this game of hockey as long as I have been you get to know many players and their parents , I also know John Erskin , Pat Kane , Sam Gagner , Dan Geradi , Cory Perry and many more London Knights over the years , their is nothing special about it , every player I say I know is just a fact , no big deal about it unless someone like you makes it one ..

Saying you know a player personally implies they know you back. If all of those players actually know you by name then that's pretty cool.

I hope you don't send any of them Christmas cards, because I'm sure Dan GIRARDI will be sad when his buddy can't spell his name right.


Just busting balls...

Ya I know , always had trouble spelling Girardi's name , their is a couple more I dont even try to spell , , the thing is some of the players I named are on a first name basis with me , players like Perry , Prust , Jared Knight we have got too know their entire family .
Take Knight for example , his father (Dwane)was a police leutenent with the Battle Creek police force , ( he retired last year) , they also own a big roadhouse restraunt just outside Battle Creek , I am still on a first name basis with the entire family , same thing goes for Perry , Prust and Rinaldo , we like to keep in touch with some of the parents over the years as they got to be real good friends over the time their son played for the Knights ..

I dont know why I am bothering to defend myself just because some "JERK" that never met a player in his life is questioning me on knowing so many players , I usuly just ignore them ..
