APPLYING THE NHLP FORMULA: CHL FORWARDS DRAFTED IN THE FIRST ROUND

To evaluate draft eligible CHL forwards, I created a point prediction model called NHLP which predicts their career season point totals in an 82 game season. In  previous posts, I applied the NHLP formula to every CHL forward selected in the first round since the 1998 NHL Entry Draft.

#21-25 Overall

#26-30 Overall

There is a total of 184 forwards, which I have sorted in descending order based on their NHLP. I have also included the NHL games played of each player along with their NHL points and career points-per-game. The 184 players have been broken down into eight groups of twenty-three.
