There is zero way that is accurate. 2mm. That would mean half of all men grow an immeasurably small amount after 16.
Edit: pretty sure you got your stats from Wikipedia. That's growth PER MONTH, until the age of 20. Going by those stats, the average male grows about 26.5mm from 16 to 18, good for a little over an inch.
That chart confirms what I said. For a 16.5 year old (average age of a 16 year old), in the 50th percentile, they will grow on average 1 inch (2.54 cm)

Svechnikov has made the final roster for Russia U20 friendlies against Canada and Czech Republic that will be held in Calgary from 2-nd to 8-th of August.

Yeah. There should be two of them. I believe the first game is on the 3rd or 4th of August.

Isn't that old news and Fetisov's pipe dream?
Ain't happening.
And Svechnikov is already at America, don't think he should go back anyways.

Fetisov has actually gone one step beyond that he wants to block all Russian players now. Some luminary that guy is, what a sellout.

Did Fetisov sell out, or just cash in? Man, I've lost almost all respect for that guy.

THE ATHLETIC IS GARBAGE
His brother Evgeny should tell him to botch the draft interview process by telling teams he loves the KHL, this way teams are scared to draft him. With a *wink* wink* only Detroit truly knows he wants to be in the NHL. When he drops, Wings pick him with their mid to late 1st!!
Brothers unite!
Is that tampering? I don't think it would be. It's just called playing your cards, right?

I think he represents the kind of talent that cannot even drop that far. We should be picking in the 20's the next couple of years anyway, just too hard to see him sliding all the way down there.

Just thought I'd pop in and say that Svechnikov has been playing C in training camp intrasquad games and stuff for the Eagles so it is definitely what he's wanting.

Yeah exactly especially if Sheahan does get moved to wing, He's someone that we can pencil in as a center down the road.

Larkin, Svechnikov, Sheahan is promising future center depth. Plus we have Axel Holmstrom and Dominic Turgeon as dark horses.

That's sweet center depth down the road, Once Datsyuk and Zetterberg retire and like you say we also have Holmstrom and Turgeon also as dark horses here as well.

I can live with that down the road, Once Datsyuk and Zetterberg go out to pasture.
exactly this
worst case scenario is we have too many good centres, converting a big, skilled and proven nhl capable centremen to the wing before finding and developing another big, skilled and nhl proven centremen is stupid
sheahan has proven he is a nhl centremen with upside, ES hasent proven jack in the NHL

Sounds like he had a very good game at center, even if it was the preseason. So does this kid have a nickname yet?
