Scouting report

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 36% chance of becoming an NHL regular, 13% of a first-line career and 4% of turning into one of the league's best. If he makes it, figure about 50 points a season at his best. A big step next season would change these odds more than anything else.
