Scouting report

Jaxsin Vaughan is a 20-year-old right wing with Everett Silvertips in the WHL, undrafted. He has 3 goals and 1 assist in 10 games, 0.40 a game, which works out to about 5 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. His team scores 1.9 a game, below the league, and much less when he is not the one scoring. And the five best scorers around him average only 0.44 points a game. He's producing without much support, and the model bumps him up for it. At 20.7 he is old for the league, so the model expects him to outscore younger players and gives less credit for it.

His most likely outcome is a long shot, with plenty of games behind it. Players drafted from 2010 to 2017 with numbers like his give him a 1% chance of becoming an NHL regular. Few players with numbers like these made it, though some did.
