I think it's two things, one, he's 6'2", second, he was on pace for 40+ points last year before he got injured.

Like Leivo, he's had injurie issues and never played more than 71 games in a season, and second isn't close with 64, then 33 games played. Played with Crosby in Pittsburgh, and was spoken quite highly of. Seems to have potential, but for various reasons, hasn't seemed to quite put it together.
