Projected potential

Bio

A solid offensive contributor who plays a sound defensive game. Dealt with injury issues in the past; definitely a long-term project.

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
3.5
 
Best-case offensive upside (peak season points potential). Forwards: 8.0 ≈ 80 points. Defense and goalie scales differ.

Scouting Feed
Ioan Gheordanescu - DobberProspects

After three seasons with North Dakota of the NCAA, and hardly any offensive progression, it is safe to assume that Strinden is not on the path to the NHL anytime soon. With his main contribution being defensive reliability, he could potentially help out an AHL team as a bottom-six forward who kills penalties. For now, his offensive output at the NCAA level has not signalled an ability to keep up with the speed of the NHL game, so there is very little reason to keep a spot on fantasy managers’ watch lists for Strinden.

DobberProspects

Strinden has been selected by the Nashville Predators with the 210th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Draft.

Curtis Rines - DobberProspects

Strinden is a two-way centerman who is reliable at both ends of the ice but can sometimes lack decision-making skills. He has had two concussions in recent history, so he has some injury risk attached to him. His transition to the NCAA this upcoming season with the University of North Dakota will go a long way in getting a better read on his true ceiling.
