[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't have to be -big to be a good women's hockey player. Kendall Coyne Shofield is 5'2" and has two gold medals. Cayla Barnes is also either 5'1" or 5'2". Amanda Boulier is only 5'1". There is a place in hockey for small, fast players. I believe Cayla Barnes started out as a figure skater.[/quote]

My DD hockey player is 5'6 and 117 lbs. Very fast and agile player.[/quote]

The women referenced above are I think like 125 to 140.  They may be small, but they are built like Mack Trucks.[/quote]

No, they do not have to be "built like mack trucks." A woman I know who played D1 in college was listed at 5'4" and 108 in college--very slim, and she definitely looked it. She might have been a little heavier when she played professionally (like 120 maybe?) but nowhere near a "mack truck." There's room for slim, fast players.[/quote]

Great…but the women specifically mentioned by PP are built like Mack Trucks.  You can look up their stats.[/quote]
