I still wonder about the size thing. He struggled in traffic for much of the tourney. Not to take away from his impressive performance today, though (just getting caught up on the game).
I know both of his goals were lucky bounces, but he played very today.
Issues of consistency and commitment though. But it's good to see that the skill and talent is there - it was only missing for three games (and planted to the bench for a game).

I actually thought Grimaldi was extremely impressive in this tournament. The points didn't really come but it wasn't for lack of creating, so it's nice to finally see the pucks go in especially in the most important game. Obviously size is an issue I don't think that even really needs to be mentioned, but I still think there's something about him that might be able to overcome that. He's just an awesome hockey player.
