Scouting report

Evan Van Gorp is a 20-year-old left wing with London Knights in the OHL, undrafted. He has 5 goals and 4 assists in 9 games, 1.00 a game, which works out to about 12 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is goals. That is up from 0.59 a game last season. 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 180 pounds.

His most likely outcome is a long shot, with a fair sample behind it. Players drafted from 2010 to 2017 with numbers like his give him a 5% chance of becoming an NHL regular. Few players with numbers like these made it, though some did.
