ANDREW BASHA Scouting Report | The QUICKEST 2024 NHL Draft Eligible?
04/19/24 • 28 min
In this episode of the Prospect Spotlight series, our scouts take a half-hour deep dive into the game of a speedy playmaking winger with checking ability: Andrew Basha! First, they introduce the player with his profile, statistical production, and his trifecta of puck skills: shooting, passing, and handling. Next, they shift their attention to his habits, tools, and toolkit, discussing why he is falling down rankings, including their own. Last, they debate Basha's projection at the NHL level from both stylistic and statistical perspectives, before capping off the episode by looking at which NHL teams would be the best fit for him.
Our tool projection scale goes from 1 to 10:
1 - Below AHL Caliber Tool
2 - AHL Caliber Tool
3 - Replacement-Level Tool
4 - Average 4th line/#6 Defenceman Tool
5 - Average 3rd line/#4 Defenseman Tool
6 - Standard Top-6/Top-4 Tool
7 - Standard Top Line/Pairing Tool
8 - Clear Elite Tool (Suzuki's hockey sense)
9 - Game-Breaking Tool (Quinn Hughes' playmaking)
10 - Top-of-the-Line Elite-Level Tool (Bedard's shot or McDavid's skating)
(note: we try to balance upside and likelihood of reaching it in our evaluations)

Previous Episode
Star Prospects Sign! | GAUTHIER, NAZAR, & BRINDLEY!
In this episode, our scouts break down the styles and projections of 3 elite prospects who signed their ELC's in the past week: Cutter Gauthier, Frank Nazar, and Gavin Brindley. First, they check-in with the recently-dealt Ducks prospect, who projects as a top 6 scorer, potentially down the middle. Next, they shift their focus to Frank Nazar, who scored in his Blackhawks debut and should become a core piece of the organization, bringing dynamic skill in spades. Last, they chat about Gavin Brindley, whose elite motor and speed complement his strong play on both sides of the puck and who will bring elements that the Blue Jackets have desperately missed this season.
Tune back in tomorrow for a prospect spotlight on the quickest player in the 2024 draft class: Andrew Basha!
