Gridin is clearly going to be an upper roster NHL player. Not sure where that lands (elite top line winger vs 2nd line PP guy), but that 2024 draft could be top five all time for the team.

Is there a primer somewhere on how to read these charts? It seems like "bar right = good; bar left = bad" but I'm sure there's more to it than that.
Here you are (NSFW just cause it's long)
NSFW!
Individual offense (teal, far left in legend):
Direct offensive contributions from the player himself: shots, goals, primary assists, playmaking attempts.
Team offense above average (cyan):
How much the team’s offense improves when that player is on the ice versus when he’s off. Think zone time, shot quality, scoring chances generated while he’s deployed.
Individual defense (dark purple):
The player’s direct defensive impact: breaking up plays, limiting shots against, recovering pucks. Negative values mean he’s directly bleeding chances.
Team defense above average (lavender/light purple):
How much the team’s defense improves when he’s on the ice versus when he’s off. So if the group allows fewer shots/chances with him out there, this is positive.
PP above average (light aqua/grey-blue):
Contribution to the team’s power play compared to average. Positive = helps drive PP results; negative = PP worse with him on.
PK above average (light grey-violet):
Contribution to the penalty kill compared to average. Positive = better suppression on PK with him; negative = worse.
Actual GameScore (empty outlined box):
The player’s raw GameScore from the game, without QoT (quality of teammates) or QoC (quality of competition) adjustments.
QoT/QoC Adjusted GameScore (gold square outline):
Their GameScore after controlling for who they played with and against. This is the fairest comparison number.

PP with legit snipers like Matty and Gridin, QBed by Zayne, Zary and Bru. That's a tantalizing future!
It won't be long (if it's not already there) that Gridin, Suniev, and Honzek surpass Klapka on the depth chart. All three will start with the Wranglers, but Huska will be throwing banana peels at Klapka hoping to get a good look at one of those three at some point. Gridin, in the last two games, has moved to the top of that grouping. He looks like a real deal. He's bigger and stronger than I expected. The shootout shot was something, but even his first goal was a rocket.
I agree on Morton and think he makes it as the 14th forward. Miromanov is the casualty and they start with 7D

Funny how the Gridin pick went from "at least they got Basha in the second round so no damage done" to "MATVEI!"

The 2024 draft in general is starting to look like it'll be our Heiskanen/Roberts/Oettenger draft.
Zayne looks like a franchise player. Gridin looks like he could be a top line winger. And Basha/Battaglia/Mews all have skillsets that makes it look like they'll be contributors at the NHL level in the near future. Never mind Misa, Laing, and the others where we could still get a couple of NHLers out of that group too.
