2024 Prospect Cards
🕑 Added 2024-06-26 16:02:01 +0000 UTC
ft is coming up and you know what that means: prospect visualizations are ready to go.
There are over 3,700 2024 NHL Draft prospects and 757 NHL-affiliated prospect cards included here, all updated using 2023-24 stats.
What these cards show is based on NHL Equivalency, a model in which scoring rates in different leagues and at different ages as well as other factors such as size are harmonized and analyzed using historical data to estimate the likelihood of a prospect being able to establish himself in the NHL full time (by playing over 200 games as an above-replacement player) and become one of the better players in the league (top 18th percentile of wins above replacement). If there's one thing we've learned about the draft in the past 30 years, it's that being able to produce well at lower levels is extremely important, even for players who end up as defensive specialists or bottom six players. Look at a prospect ranking from 15 years ago and you'll see a lot of "can't miss offensive top line" forward prospects who became third line role players and a lot of safe bet fourth liners who struggled in the AHL.
These metrics are of course imperfect, and a low rating doesn't doom a player to a poor career. But they do provide extremely valuable context for what a player's pre-NHL production actually implies about their chances of sticking and succeeding in the league and also give us some valuable perspective about just how uncertain it is that prospects pan out like we hope they do.
So with that said, here are the links to access these long-awaited cards.

how do i view these? just subbed and theyre all locked at the bottom of the sheet?
Matthew DeVries
Mine is the same thing. It opens in google sheets with just a few prospects and a few more blank sheets.

yeah, i was wondering the same thing. i could TOTALLY understand only having maybe the top 150-200 guys and so as a result many 5th to 7th round picks not being included. BUT a guy who went 17th and LITERALLY put up 100 points in the WHL? It's not the end of the world, but we're just wondering why. Is it because he only really had that one season?
Tim Hiller
My excel file just has like 10 random sheets with player cards. I'm confused.

Hey Jfresh, do u mind if u refund my money? I accidentally subscribed on the wrong account. I’ll be resubbing on roachmaiden20@gmail.com
Michael Charlton
Hey JFresh I have found an issues with the page, some of the Utah prospects are logos don't show up on their cause the team still lists them as Arizona Coyotes changing the team name under 'right' col on the NHL Prospect page fixes this.
Stephen Zenack
Yeah Letourneau I get, but Parascak played in the most popular U18 league in western canada and is now in the WHL so I don't know why he's missing
Erik
Yeah that's disappointing for a possible first round pick. Was curious what his outlook was since this was his first year of Junior hockey. Dean Letourneau is also missing but that may be because of the prep hockey conversion.
Stephen Zenack
It looks like Terik Parascak is missing from the 2024 prospects list
