Scouting report

Carson Woodall is a 20-year-old defenceman with Windsor Spitfires in the OHL, undrafted. He has 12 goals and 51 assists in 68 games, 0.93 a game, which works out to about 11 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is setting up other people. His team scores 4.2 a game, one of the better offences around. Some of those points come from the company he keeps, and the model discounts them. At 20.3 he is old for the league, so the model expects him to outscore younger players and gives less credit for it. Listed at 5-foot-11 and 179 pounds.

The model's median outcome for him is a long shot, with a fair sample behind it. Players drafted from 2010 to 2017 with numbers like his give him an 11% chance of becoming an NHL regular. This is a points model, so it can't see what he does without the puck. Few players with numbers like these made it, though some did.
