Scouting report
Mazden Leslie is a 21-year-old defenceman with Kelowna Rockets in the WHL, undrafted. He has 18 goals and 50 assists in 67 games, 1.01 a game, which works out to about 12 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is setting up other people. At 21.4 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 a fair sample behind it. Players drafted from 2010 to 2017 with numbers like his give him a 6% 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.
