Even taking away their incredible 2002 draft, Detroit since 2003 has 1993 man games to Calgary's 1747. (500 of those are Phaneuf)

The issue was whether they have done better than most.
Assuming Tinordi's numbers are correct, the man games per team are as follows since the 2003 draft:

1) Montreal - 4494
2) San Jose - 4246
3) Chicago - 4213
4) Columbus - 4050
5) Boston - 4029
6)Buffalo - 3888
7)Pittsburgh - 3861
8) Anaheim - 3685
9) Nashville - 3614
10) LA - 3603
11) New York Islanders - 3522
12) Edmonton - 3499
13) Washington - 3499
14) Colorado - 3400
15) St. Louis - 3387
16) Philly - 3362
17) New York Rangers - 3202
18)Florida - 3035
19)Phoenix - 2836
20)Dallas - 2808
21) Ottawa - 2800
22) Minnesota - 2734
23) Carolina - 2699
24) Winnipeg - 2317
25) Vancouver - 2304
26) Toronto- 2304
27) New Jersey - 2218
28) Detroit - 1993
29) Calgary - 1747
30) Tampa Bay - 1710

Those are the standings by games played by drafted players since the 2003 draft for what it is worth, the Flames are ever so slightly better than the Tampa Bay Lightning.
