Can Nick Robertson make the NHL next year?

Let me tell you a story about two small wingers who scored a ton of goals in the OHL.

Player A

Player A is a 5’7” winger, and for his entire OHL career he was one of the league’s top goal scorers.

In the season before he was drafted, he started the year 17 years old but spent most of the season as an 18 year old. He scored 51 goals that year, tied for second in the entire league and one back of the leader.

Despite his gaudy goals and points, Player A fell to the second round before he was drafted.
