Scouting report
Mathieu Plante is a 20-year-old defenceman with Shawinigan Cataractes in the QMJHL, undrafted. He has 9 goals and 26 assists in 59 games, 0.59 a game, which works out to about 6 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is setting up other people. At 20.0 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-0 and 179 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 3% chance of becoming an NHL regular. This is a points model, so it can't see what he does without the puck. Few players with numbers like these made it, though some did.
