Hopefully he can be another Voronkov with a more established physical play

Literally the opposite of what was expected is it not?

While true, you'd hope with that big of a game that he can bring a little physicality.

It looks like he's improved his skating...

Overall he always had great hands and good IQ. But his skating was subpar, and he didn't use his size properly. But it looks like he's going in the right direction. If he ever becomes an NHLer, him and Voronkov together will look ridiculous. It's gonna be such old school hockey that I doubt other teams will be able to contain it.

More like two giant ballerinas.

Voronkov has been infinitely more skilled and not as physical as promised.

When Voronkov is around the net opponents can't move him away though.

Yes that is the one thing that came as promised.
