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
6.0
60% 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
4.5
 
Best-case offensive upside (peak season points potential). Forwards: 8.0 ≈ 80 points. Defense and goalie scales differ.

Scouting Feed

Despite signing his entry-level contract and being reassigned to the American Hockey League late last season, Gojsic did not play any games with the Milwaukee Admirals (Nashville’s AHL affiliate). Entering his 19-year-old season, Gojsic will have the opportunity to build his all-around game and improve offensively with the Kelowna Rockets in the Western Hockey League (WHL), who will be a well-equipped team to make a run at the Western Hockey League Championship as they will host the 2026 Memorial Cup. Gojsic has an NHL shot, the size and physicality to become a third-line NHL forward. He has a long way to go offensively, but with patience and proper development, he can become an everyday NHL player. Add him to your watch list in deep dynasty leagues, as he will play on a team that will garner attention throughout the 2025-26 season, but don’t rush to add him. Should he make positive strides during the 2025-26 season, Gojsic could be worth stashing in the future.

The Nashville Predators assigned Gojsic to the Milwaukee Admirals (AHL).

Gojsic signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Nashville Predators.

The Nashville Predators drafted Gojsic in the third round (94th overall) in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft.
