To me it's useless because you can't apply a metric to a guys jr or russia numbers and expect to be able to predict his NHL numbers at all.
Obviously it's not a perfect system, and nobody expects it to be, but it's based on numbers of players that have made the jump from the other various leagues to the NHL. It's just a way to see how it might translate, I don't think anybody actually takes it seriously.
