Scouting report

Conor Walton is a 20-year-old defenceman with Windsor Spitfires in the OHL, undrafted. He has 0 goals and 0 assists in 8 games, 0.00 a game, which works out to about 0 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate.

That is down from 0.26 a game last season, and the projection drops with it. At 20.4 he is old for the league, so the model expects him to outscore younger players and gives less credit for it. Listed at 6-foot-5 and 207 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 a 2% 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.
