Scouting report

Kevin Korchinski is a 22-year-old defenceman with Rockford IceHogs in the AHL. He has 2 goals and 24 assists in 53 games, 0.49 a game, which works out to about 16 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is setting up other people. Listed at 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds.

His most likely outcome is a tweener, with a fair sample behind it. Players drafted from 2010 to 2017 with numbers like his give him a 33% chance of becoming an NHL regular and 3% of a top-pair career. If he makes it, figure about 23 points a season at his best. This is a points model, so it can't see what he does without the puck. His odds move most with next season's line, so a big jump would matter more than a repeat.
