He's 6 feet tall and about 200 pounds. That is hardly "small". Topi likely replaces whichever one of Holl or Dermott is not traded in 2 years.

I don't know but to me "Small" in the NHL is sub 5"10 180 lbs. Liljegren and Dermott are pretty much the same size and nobody consider Dermott small.

According to the most recent and handiest data I could find, to start the 2019 season the average nhl player is 6’1” 199.3lbs so neither guy is “small” at 6’ 200+ (I suspect Lilly is closer to 210-215 by how big he looks now)

the only issue i see with him right now is, he seems slow in one on one situations when going into the d-zone if he needs to chase someone down, or, they are racing for the puck.
...carrying the puck, he's fluid, so, he needs to work on his overall speed, or he'll never be more than a bottom pair defender.

He's not small, and even if he was, the Bruins made it to game 7 of the cup final with:
5'9" Krug playing 24 games
5'9" Grzelcyk playing 20 games
5'11" Clifton playing 18 games
5'11" Kampfer playing 3 games.
They had extremes at the other end in Chara and Carlo obviously but just give me good players, especially on defense. I don't really care how big they are.
Lili is a tank. Small? Lol.
I still don't know how I feel about Lily he's been pretty good but hopefully he doesn't turn into a Tyson Barrie

I'd say he's already better defensively than Tyson Barrie. And I was a Barrie fan.

I don't see the comparison at all.
How do you feel they are similar?

If you’re comparing him to Barrie, you’re clearly not watching.

I’d like to see a Rielly - Lilly pairing at some point.
Probably a big ask for a rookie D, so it would likely mean Keefe needs to go even TOI on all 3 pairings ES. But I feel like he would compliment Reilly well.

Lilly is bigger than Salming and smaller than Kaberle just for reference of how much size doesn’t matter

Size matters when discussing rear guards. Get your heads out of the gutter and smell the bath salts.
