Scouting report

Alex Bump is a 22-year-old left wing with Lehigh Valley Phantoms in the AHL, a Philadelphia Flyers fifth-round pick, 133 overall in 2022. He has 7 goals and 1 assist in 5 games, 1.60 a game, which works out to about 51 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. Most of it is goals. His team scores 3.5 a game, below the league, and much less when he is not the one scoring. Scoring without much help counts for more, so the model nudges him up. Listed at 6-foot-0 and 195 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 39% chance of becoming an NHL regular. If he makes it, figure about 36 points a season at his best. His odds move most with next season's line, so a big jump would matter more than a repeat.
