Well this is weird...

Eliteprospects has him listed at 6'0 200 pounds. Hockeydp has him listed at 6'4 205 pounds.

But I think I'll have to go with Elitleprospects because when you watch Kenins play, he looks like a 6'0, 5'11.

Anybody noticed that?

Check out this quote from 2013 - Crow was right! Also, pretty awesome he made the recommendation.

*** On a related note, the Canucks’ signing of 22-year-old Latvian forward Ronalds Kenins didn’t exactly take the hockey world by storm, but there is an interesting backstory there.

Last season, Kenins played for former Canucks head coach Marc Crawford with Zurich in the Swiss elite league. He wasn’t exactly a scoring machine — 3-14-17 in 45 games — but he impressed Crawford with his mature, two-way game.

As it happens, Crawford’s brother Eric is the Canucks’ director of professional scouting. Older brother recommended Kenins to younger brother. Kenins signed with the Canucks. And now Marc Crawford says he’ll be playing in the NHL in two years.

“He’ll make it,” said the Crow. “I’m convinced of it.”

Crawford compared Kenins to Leo Komarov, the Estonian forward who played with the Leafs last season. Kenins is expected to play in Zurich this season.

You should look at the first page or two of this thread. It was discussed in length.

I'll take this anytime of the week

free prospect who MAY be a 15-20 goal scorers 30-50 points a year

GOOOD JOB GM MG :bigblush:

If Rons Kenins becomes a bigger version of Brendan Gallagher for the Canucks, we should all be overjoyed. On the offensive side of the puck, love the way he shoots from wherever and how he goes to the net.

This Canucks team is so fixated on puck possession and making the "right" play that it doesn't shoot often enough...great to see that a kid is showing the way with blasting every chance he gets.
