Projected potential

Bio

Big, physical, smooth skating defenseman that projects to be a penalty killer. Could have value in multi-cat leagues that use hits. Needs to keep developing offense.

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
5.0
50% 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

Bausov made an appearance during the Carolina Hurricanes Development Camp and showed why he was taken so highly. He’s a strong skater, being able to cover large amounts of ground quickly. Combine that with his hulking reach and size and you have the physical tools for a shutdown defenseman, which Bausov projects to be. He needs to keep developing his offensive skill set, which mainly relies on quick, short passes and a decent shot, but the outline for an effective NHL player is there. He projects to spend another season with MHK Dynamo St. Petersburg, the MHL affiliate of Dynamo St. Petersburg.
