Well, let's continue on and talk about some risers and fallers
0:03
Uh, there were a few that I've noted, um, you know, talk about again already
0:07
Uh, Peter, what, uh, which ones did you find rose the most from your mid to your
0:13
final, uh, the biggest one obviously is going to be Steinitz-Holberg. Um, his interview or his scrum during the combine really stood out a lot
0:26
Number of teams took note of him. I believe he, I think there was only maybe two teams where he didn't talk to
0:33
which is a good number of teams that are possibly going to call on for services
0:38
Um, as a, you know, tough throwback mobile defender, which is, you know
0:44
something we haven't seen in a while and his performance down the stretch and
0:48
then a playoffs, the world hockey championships, where he was earning 23, 24 minutes a game, uh, being a top pairing defender, um, really showed
0:58
the maturity of his game and being able to elevate his play some moments and
1:04
hiccups here and there bad penalties that's expected from a young teenager. But you had to have liked what you saw in his game
1:10
And he was a third rounder for me. He shot up into a 22 for me
1:14
Um, he's definitely, he could. I mean, I have him in the top 25, but there isn't any doubt in my mind
1:19
that he could probably go top 20, top 15, possibly as a result of that
1:25
Um, so he's a big riser. Uh, Teddy Siga is another one too
1:28
He was another great interview where he talked about that energy that in your face, you know, thwarting the side of the opponent kind of player, kind of like
1:36
Vincent Trocek that he was one player that he mentioned as someone that, or a
1:41
player that was brought up that, you know, kind of emulates his style of play. And, you know, the way that Trocek has played the last few seasons for the New
1:48
York Rangers, he would be great money for any team or great value for any
1:52
team as a result of that too. Um, uh, yeah, I think those are the main two that really stood out for me as a
2:01
result in terms of like improving their sock. And I really did like, um, Stigas performance at the U 18s and Beckett
2:09
Seneca as well, small riser, because I did have him at 19
2:14
He did go up to 13. And again, there's talks about him possibly even going top five, which we
2:21
we talk about throwing like, you know, you know, like throwing things all over
2:26
the place. That's a possibility of what could happen as well. But having Seneca at 13 is as a top third, 15, uh, pick, um, I know I probably
2:36
wasn't as high as him, uh, before, but I was the one saying Beckett Seneca is
2:41
definitely worth being a top 20 pick. Now he's a top 15, possibly even more as a result
2:46
So those are three names that really rose up on my rankings
