Scouting report

Antoine Provencher is a 17-year-old centre with Charlottetown Islanders in the QMJHL. He has 3 goals and 1 assist in 10 games, 0.40 a game, which works out to about 4 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate.

At 17.2 he is among the youngest regulars in the league, and age matters more than any single stat in these projections. Listed at 5-foot-11 and 191 pounds. His most likely outcome is an AHLer, with a fair sample behind it. Players drafted from 2010 to 2017 with numbers like his give him a 29% chance of becoming an NHL regular and 10% of a first-line career. If he makes it, figure about 45 points a season at his best. A big step next season would change these odds more than anything else.
