Scouting report

Owen Griffin is a 19-year-old centre with Guelph Storm in the OHL, undrafted. He has 5 goals and 12 assists in 9 games, 1.89 a game, which works out to about 22 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is setting up other people. That is up from 1.02 a game last season. The five best scorers around him average 1.32 points a game, well above the norm. Some of those points come from the company he keeps, and the model discounts them. Listed at 5-foot-10 and 175 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 and 4% of a first-line career. A big step next season would change these odds more than anything else.
