Back when he was drafted, Senyshyn was a late riser in the draft rankings, due to his incredible size and speed, and his apparent goal scoring ability. Many talked about how he could sneak into the latter part of the first round, but nobody thought he would be drafted where he was. Certainly frustrating for Bruins fans though, as 2 of 3 of those picks are pretty much busts (Jakob Zboril being the other bust), and Debrusk will never be close to a Barzal or Connor.
Kinda reminds me of 2013, when we had 3 first-rounders and 2 were duds, although no players left on the board were of the calibre of a Barzal or Connor.
