at Your Age?
We analyzed 10 years of NHL and Division I players and tracked exactly where they were playing at ages 15, 16, 17, and 18. Here's what the data shows.
What This Means for Your Player
On Track
Playing at or above the level this data shows for your age. Keep working — the path is open.
One Step Behind

Need a Plan
Significantly below the trend line. Not impossible — but you need to be honest about the timeline and the work required.
