Projected potential

Bio

Big, physical defenseman with the upside of becoming a bottom-pairing defenseman in the NHL. Limited offensively but could prove valuable in multi-cat leagues where hits and PIMs are a factor.

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

Scouting Feed

The captain of the Kitchener Rangers is a big, physical, and mean defenseman who led the OHL in penalty minutes. The knock on Andonovski is his willingness to take unnecessary penalties, which is a regular occurrence. The Markham, Ontario native is often tasked with getting in the face of the opposing team’s top lines. His fantasy value will be in banger leagues where hits, PIM, and blocks are a factor. Andonovski had six goals and 15 assists in 65 games for the Kitchener Rangers so far this season. He will head to the AHL with the Belleville Senators in the fall.
