Prospect Info: All-Purpose Prospect Thread v17.0

There is some value in Bader's model, as well as other models used for projecting prospects.

But models aren't everything. If a model can't accurately account for a prospect missing 80% of their season due to hip surgery, than that model has some very obvious flaws.

isn't the model indirectly taking injuries into account? Like Bader said it doesnt matter why the player had such a poor season (poor performance, mental health, injury): a bad year in such a crucial developmental season, regardless of cause, has really bad developmental ramifications.

I think Nazar couldve spent another year at college and been better off for it. Kid basically lost a whole year. We'll see how this year goes. If he produces at a high level in the AHL id say that would quell most of our concerns

How many times do I have to request that Bader posts are banned here?

I dont know why someone would make the assumption that a bad season and an injured season are the same without some kind of evidence. Lumping them all together does nothing to prove that assumption.

Stat models don't take injury or circumstance into account because it's all numbers. It's how you get the Preds third line center being more valuable than Patrick Kane.
