Scouting report
Rylan Gould is a 21-year-old left wing with Everett Silvertips in the WHL, undrafted. He has 21 goals and 29 assists in 53 games, 0.94 a game, which works out to about 11 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. His team scores 4.5 a game, one of the better offences around. And the five best scorers around him average 1.40 points a game, well above the norm. Linemates like that pad a stat line, so the model takes some of his points back. At 21.1 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 2% chance of becoming an NHL regular. Few players with numbers like these made it, though some did.
