Nylander, Pastrnak, and Rantanen (and Phil Tomasino randomly) are the only players since 2000 to play a good chunk (>20 games) of an AHL season at u20 and have more than 1 p/g. Zegras/Jarvis/Boldy were in their tier as well but in less than 20 gp.
They were all decently over 1 p/g so I wouldn't say they comparable to what Gridin is doing. He's probably more historically comparable with like a Cole Perfetti/JJ Peterka/Alex Holtz/Lukas Reichel (who was just over a p/g, 1.02).
So like I'd say top 6 winger would be looking to be the potential if he can maintain this production this season, but not a lock or anything.
