Scouting report
Aiden Fink is a 21-year-old right wing with Milwaukee Admirals in the AHL, a Nashville Predators seventh-round pick, 218 overall in 2023. He has 1 goal and 0 assists in 3 games, 0.33 a game, which works out to about 11 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. His team scores 2.5 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 5-foot-10 and 165 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 a 34% chance of becoming an NHL regular and 5% of a first-line career. If he makes it, figure about 36 points a season at his best. A big step next season would change these odds more than anything else.
