Scouting report
Alex Huang is a 19-year-old defenceman with Chicoutimi Saguenéens in the QMJHL, undrafted. He has 11 goals and 59 assists in 62 games, 1.13 a game, which works out to about 10 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is setting up other people. His team scores 5.5 a game, one of the better offences around. And the five best scorers around him average 1.23 points a game, well above the norm. Linemates like that pad a stat line, so the model takes some of his points back. Listed at 6-foot-0 and 181 pounds.
