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
3.0
30% 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
2.0
 
Best-case offensive upside (peak season points potential). Forwards: 8.0 ≈ 80 points. Defense and goalie scales differ.

Scouting Feed

A 2023 fifth-round pick (147th overall), Bicker, played the 2024-25 season with the Löwen Frankfurt in the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL). He played in 20 regular season and two playoff games. In 22 combined games, he mustered five assists. Bicker is a long shot to play in the NHL at the moment, but he plays an excellent 200-foot game and competes hard; whether that translates to an NHL opportunity, only time will tell. He has no fantasy value unless he moves to North America and can develop some offensive capabilities.
