Projected potential

Bio

A big forward with some skill and offensive hockey sense. Skating needs improvement to succeed at the next level.

PNHLe

Projected potential: 122025-26 · AHL · Syracuse Crunch

What is PNHLe?

PNHLe is an offensive stat that is used to project a player’s point potential at the NHL level and is meant to standardize a variety of leagues so that prospects can be compared from one league with another.

PNHLe attempts to equalize all leagues, age and positions so that the offensive potential of a prospect can easily be compared with others, while also projecting future NHL point potential in the prime years of a player.

The problem with NHLe

The premise of the NHLe stat is certainly a great idea. If a player jumps directly from one league to the NHL there should be some precedent set by historical values that would indicate how many points that player should project to having in a full NHL season. However, it always bothered me that NHLe never took into account that younger players in the same league would always have a massive disadvantage compared to those that have more experience and are physically more mature in the same league. NHLe only looks at the present to predict how many points in one league are equated at the NHL level.

NHL Certainty
4.0
40% odds
Odds of becoming a full-time NHL player (10.0 = 100%). Draft guideline is a starting point and should rise as the prospect proves himself.
Upside
4.0
 
Best-case offensive upside (peak season points potential). Forwards: 8.0 ≈ 80 points. Defense and goalie scales differ.

Scouting Feed
Markus R - DobberProspects

Flinton, singing his entry-level contract, is already beating the odds as one of the final picks from the 2021 draft. He has two years with the Crunch to establish himself and give management a reason to keep him around. This first season in the AHL will be telling. If he hits the ground running, there might be something here; if he has a poor first season, he’s almost immediately looking like a write-off.

Mark Henry - DobberProspects

The Tampa Bay Lightning signed their 2021 seventh-round pick (211th overall) Robert Cooper Flinton to a two-year, entry-level NHL contract beginning with the 2025-26 season. He will report to the Syracuse Crunch and play the remainder of the season on an AHL tryout.
