I'm not complaining, just pointing out that he likely won't make it to 5'11. Maybe he will but the fancy stats indicate he likely will not. Patrick Kane is 5'10 177lbs. It'll be okay.
Which is unlikely. The Sabres have him listed at 5′9″, 163lbs.
Most kids are done growing at around 18 years old.
I think the best we can hope for is a 5'10" Zach Benson.
I think all of the league's owners got together and agreed to lower the standards for their broadcast crews. This way they can pay low quality broadcasters lower wages and still point to the other teams and say "they're no worse than those guys..."
