It's officially between 24th and 27th.
Japan and Sk are in the North and Australia and NZ are in the South. So confused.
it wont make that big of a difference 24-27. Basically, at that point projections are often off. Hate that one time every few years where you miss out on someone good by 1-2 spots, but often the consensus “we missed out” were lucky misses.
For some reason it feels easier to move up from 24th than 27th, and even 25th. But that's probably more psychological than factual.
Stop thinking of the equator and you might understand. Global south is a term used to replace the term third world countries. It doesn't mean all countries to the south of the equator (aus and nz) and it doesn't mean all countries to the "south" like South Korea. It's an anglo-saxon term, which pretty much means anything south of us /Australia nz sa sk and Japan.
The closest D-man we have to Romanov is Xhekaj. Similar offense, maybe Romanov slightly better defense but Xhekaj even more physical. Durability goes to Romanov by far though.
The recency biaises are going crazy right now : if you read this board, now Iginla will go 1OA and Sennecke 2OA
Can't be 24th. Jets finished 4th in the league and the Rangers or Canes will win their division so it's 26 or 27 at this point I think.
And he is still adjusting to a frame that grew 5 inches in less than two years. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
Yup. Big impact on his team too as Oshawa surged up the standings when Sennecke took off in January. He was dealing with an injury first half of the season as well.
It's more than just flavour of the week. That sounds like what some said about Slaf and McTavish.
Those Monahan transactions are real wacky.

If he isn't then Demidov or Lindstrom are. It's always a good thing if someone plays themselves up into the conversation, rather than people falling out of it.
If he keeps the progression up throughout the playoffs, yes. I know we all dunk on Grant, myself included, but he does still have connections (through Timmins, obviously).
Beckett Sennecke Climbing the Rankings
No, it's not a bad thing at all.
This is a similar phenomenon to what happened with Kirby Dach. You get drafted at 5'10, then you hit a massive growth spurt in a few months go to 6'2 (though Dach went from like 5'9 to 6'4), and you are so uncoordinated you're like a puppy with big paws.
That's why Sennecke was rated very highly early with modest production. Now the production is coming and his coordination is starting to come into play.
These aren't fan driven though, they are coming from those around the scouting community. Sennecke was always highly regarded prior to the production.
Dude you'd love him if you watched him. Big, skilled, gets inside.
Sennecke's skating alone sets him apart from Greentree.
This is a great post.
We know the Habs love late risers, as do most teams. If you've got someone on a steep upward trajectory and the athletic and skill profile is high, along with a guy who is playing between the dots, has great short area skill and is problem solving at a high level?
Imagine what they think they could do with him in the hands of Adam Nicholas?
One funny thing is that a lot of the posters bemoaning the late rise of Sennecke have been supporters of the late rise of Iginla. What's the difference here? They were both considered mid/late 1st rounders coming into the year and through the first half. I would wager Iginla's last name carries some bias.
Lindstrom? No
