Scouting report
Jack Van Volsen is a 20-year-old centre with Sarnia Sting in the OHL, undrafted. He has 6 goals and 8 assists in 12 games, 1.17 a game, which works out to about 14 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. That is up from 0.56 a game last season. At 20.7 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-2 and 190 pounds.
The model's median outcome for him is a long shot, with plenty of games 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.
