Scouting report

Joe Arntsen is a 23-year-old defenceman with Abbotsford Canucks in the AHL. He has 0 goals and 1 assist in 5 games, 0.20 a game, which works out to about 6 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. His team scores 3.7 a game, one of the better offences around. Some of those points come from the company he keeps, and the model discounts them. Listed at 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds.

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 an 11% chance of becoming an NHL regular. This is a points model, so it can't see what he does without the puck. A big step next season would change these odds more than anything else.
