Should we trust your eye test on TV or the combine? 6’0 - 201Not even close by the look of it.

Garth Butcher was 6' 200 lbs too. The WHL is actually crawling with guys exactly that sizeShould we trust your eye test on TV or the combine? 6’0 - 201
I trust the combine resultsGarth Butcher was 6' 200 lbs too. The WHL is actually crawling with guys exactly that size

Kevin Bieksa was 6'1" Donny...
I trust the combine results
Didn't he drop ten or so pounds before the season to improve his mobility? Hockey db has him listed at 189. I don't think stacking extra weight on that frame is going to help his cause any myself.What are you talkin' about... he's been 200+ for a couple years now..
Scouting report on Woo.. "He’s already arguably got an NHL body, tipping the scales at just over 200 pounds and playing a brand of hockey that wouldn’t look out of place in the professional ranks."
Trust the combine, every scouting report .. .. looking at him... watching a game. Megaterio must be confused with someone else as Woo can play physically.
Bruce Lee was 5'7 or so and probably around 130 pounds.I doen't know if he's a project or not but he doesn't seem quick enough on his feet to survive in the AHL right now. Especially for a little guy
In other word, he is a project.He's not a project. Woo is a former high 2nd round pick who was considered a potential first round pick. He was drafted as a defensive Dman with questionable offensive potential. He's obviously considered one of the better Dman in the WHL. Whether he develops into an NHL Dman is a question mark like any other late first round pick or 2nd round pick but he's not a project.

Uh, what? Woo is 19 years old. Stop jumping the gun
Woo is developing just fine for a 19 year old. He’s being asked to play a different role under a different system this year. Many young kids have peaks and valleys through their development. Ignore the trolls, watch his games (or follow up on his progress), and come to your own conclusions.
You’re so right, HS. He’s a CHL junior player, drafted 2018. No need to be casting doubt on the kid, now. Didn’t we just go through 5 years of casting doubt upon Virtanen?
Yep.
It’s funny.
As a Canucks fan, you’d think that certain fans would be more patient with prospects, given what we saw with Naslund, Bertuzzi, Hank, Dan, and now Markstrom. But nope. 19 year old Woo is clearly going the way of the dodo bird because he’s been less than stellar this year in a new role in a new system.
It’s common for passionate Canuck fans to grow impatient with a prospect, hell I suffer from it once in awhile as well.
Yeah but a terrible hockey playerBruce Lee was 5'7 or so and probably around 130 pounds.

Bang on. If I didn’t have a soft spot for the Habs I’d be crazy jealous right now. Romanov looks like the steal of the draft to me. Amazing vision, plays physical too, but great 2-way game. He’s gonna be a stud!Might be off topic but Romanov (who was taken one spot after Woo) has looked amazing so far in the WJC- one of the best dmen so far in the tourny
Notice a trend? A player taken after a Benning bust (or potential bust) pick goes onto become a star. I still believe Benning took Woo because he thought his name sounded cool.
Lind is tracking well this season, Hague made the jump faster but he isn’t exactly flourishing. Too early to judgeBang on. If I didn’t have a soft spot for the Habs I’d be crazy jealous right now.

Kole Lind is another missed pick imo. Right after him went a couple of good defensemen already cracking the NHL roster I believe. Nicolas Hague for Vegas, how good would he like in a Canucks uni?
We had a golden opportunity with the accidental tank the last few years to stockpile picks (2nd round and beyond) and hopefully hit one out of the park, but it was completely wasted.
