Projected potential

Bio

An athletic, big-framed goaltender who needs to fill out. Has strong lateral movement and rebound control.

PNHLe

PNHLe data is not available for this prospect yet.

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.

Strahl played his first season in North America for the Youngstown Phantoms in the USHL during the 2024-25 season. He had a 33-12-0-1 record with a 2.42 GAA and .903 SV% and was named one of three USHL Goalie of the Year finalists along with Jan Spunar and Yan Shostak (winner). He played more minutes than any other goalie in the USHL last season. Strahl is moving on to the NCAA for the 2025-26 season as he is committed to playing at Michigan State. The Blue Jackets’ 2023 fifth-round pick (156th overall) is not considered a dynasty stash, but if he can put together a solid NCAA career, he could be on the fantasy radar in two to three seasons.
