Scouting report
Antoine St-Laurent is an 18-year-old defenceman with Rouyn-Noranda Huskies in the QMJHL. He has 1 goal and 9 assists in 12 games, 0.83 a game, which works out to about 8 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is setting up other people. His team scores 3.1 a game, below the league, and much less when he is not the one scoring. Scoring without much help counts for more, so the model nudges him up. Listed at 5-foot-10 and 177 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 25% chance of becoming an NHL regular, 10% of a top-pair career and 2% of turning into one of the league's best. This is a points model, so it can't see what he does without the puck. A big step next season would change these odds more than anything else.
