That's not the kind of thing you can really tell from a player's listed height and weight though. Mike Richards is listed at 5'11 199 and he's not easily pushed around. Giroux is listed at 5'11 172 and the same for him. Crosby's listed as 5'11 200, Datsyuk at 5'11 198 and so on.
At any rate we aren't dealing with numbers that are particularly accurate. It's funny how some players well past their stage of adolescence can apparently grow another inch after being traded to a new team.
The only numbers that I think are actually precise are those taken at the draft combine, and since it's not unheard of to keep growing past 18, those numbers are only a snapshot in time.
Well said, Snoop! 8) That name (Kush) will always remind me of Venice Beach, and those memories are nothing but great!
