Prospects NHLE Update

We're about half-way through both the current National Hockey League season and the seasons for the various other leagues that the Calgary Flames have prospects in. So we're far enough into the season to be able to compare each player's performance with previous seasons - and with other prospects - by using NHLE to track and compare their offensive production.

To keep things manageable here, I focused the examination on Flames prospects 22 years of age and younger, which also effectively capped it at players from the 2012 NHL Draft and younger.

ABOUT NHLE

NHLE, or "NHL Equivalence," is a method of approximating offensive production in one league with offensive production in the National Hockey League, by aggregating production from players from each league and comparing it with their production in the NHL.
