*Buzzsaw* Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 We all know Petey can dangle and we all know he can shoot... but he is a beanpole and he does get knocked down in the corners regularly. (even though he can lay the hits too... ) So the question for all you EP40 fans.... How much muscle is he going to pack on during the summer? We can revisit this at Training Camp and see if the majority opinion was right and who predicted correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twilight Sparkle Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Petey gains weight: CDC: OMG HOW MANY CHEESEBURGERS DID YA DRIVE IN TO THAT GUT OF YERS?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 A few pounds. His style is not a heavy game and I can't see him ever being much more than 185 at most. Sites already have him at 176lbs, so I don't see him gaining much, nor do I see him needing to gain much weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 The stupidity of this weight obsession for prospects on CDC is overwhelming. This is not the 90s dead puck era. This is more of a power to weight ratio sport now. Acceleration, quick stops and turns are more important and these are aided by strength and hindered by weight.

Maniwaki Canuck Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 5 at the most, and not through any attempt to "bulk up". Petey himself said that his main aim is to get faster, and that's what makes sense for his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 he wants to work on his conditioning so the team should just hook him up with the twins. pettersson's gifts combined with the sedins' fitness and durability would be unstoppable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 My guess is 5 lbs or so. He's tall/lanky with a fairly high center of gravity but bracing with legs apart/knees bent can also help with that as he's fighting for a puck. I like him just the way he is...more experience will arm him with "what to expect" and how to prepare for it (too). Thing is, his body type likely doesn't give way for being too stalky...he can gain a little muscle mass, sure, but his agility is a big plus so don't want him to gain in areas only to lose in others in a tradeoff. Core strength, balance and conditioning , sure. But don't force a round peg into a square hole here. We need to assign a heavyweight to him so he can just play his game. As Schenn is to Quinn, Petey needs a Pitbull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
