Scouting report

Samuel Jung is a 20-year-old right wing with KalPa U20 in the U20 SM-SARJA, a New York Rangers sixth-round pick, 166 overall in 2025. He has 1 goal and 0 assists in 4 games, 0.25 a game, which works out to about 2 NHL points over 82 at his league's exchange rate. At 20.3 he is old for the league, so the model expects him to outscore younger players and gives less credit for it. Listed at 6-foot-3 and 175 pounds.

The model's median outcome for him is a long shot, with a fair sample behind it. Players drafted from 2010 to 2017 with numbers like his give him a 4% chance of becoming an NHL regular. Few players with numbers like these made it, though some did.
