"-" Non-existent ratings

We have a player in our league Player Report for #28 Matvey Madiev

who has a non-existent power potential rated by SISA, but many of our scouts have his power potential rated as high as 9 or 10 on a 10 pt. scale. what should i consider his actual potential to be with the huge difference b/w SISA and our scouts?

You've got the wrong idea about SISA. Read this from the manual:

Quote:
15.1. The Sports International Scouting Association (SISA)

Apart from your own scouts, the game also has SISA, the Sports International Scouting Association. SISA is a group of unbiased scouts who provide reports on all players in the league. Even if you have fired all your scouts, SISA can provide you with some data on players in the game. Unfortunately, SISA is woefully understaffed, and as a result, it updates its reports on each player only once per year. SISA scouts are also woefully underpaid, and as a result, they can be wildly inaccurate at times. SISA scouting is more inaccurate for younger, less established players than it is for veterans, the “known quantities” of any league. Most scouts who are available for you to hire will provide better information than the SISA scouts do. The bottom line is that, whenever possible, you should use your own scouts’ information.

Note: When scouting is off, all scouting is equal and 100% accurate. In this scenario, SISA scouts show the “true” player ratings.
Part of that "woefully understaffed" deal is incomplete as well as inaccurate SISA ratings. They designed that intentionally to make you want to use your scouts (or turn scouting off altogether). So the "-" is not zero, but "unknown" in this instance.
