Gavin Brindley

RW · 22 years old · AHL 26-27

Drafted 2023 · round 2, 34 overall, CBJ

He does not play in the NHL yet, so this page carries what he has actually done rather than what we project. No forecast, no category value and no draft ranking: we model NHL seasons, and putting a number on a AHL season we do not model would look like analysis and be a guess.

Each season's points per game times its league's translation factor (for example SHL 0.59, Liiga 0.54, AHL 0.44, Allsvenskan 0.38, CHL 0.28, J20 0.18): what a league's scoring has historically been worth in the NHL. A scoring translation, not a rating. A short current season is drawn lighter.

Drafted players from 2005 to 2019 (3,192 of them, including the ones who never made it) whose season at his age looked most like his 25-26: NHL, 56 GP, 0.23 NHL-equivalent at 20.9, after 0.14 the year before. Also matched on draft slot, height, playing against adults and centre or wing. Then their NHL careers.
