So you're suggesting the difference between the Oilers record of drafting/developing versus the Wings would be no different statistically than zero?
Can not see how this could be true.

If we have 256 coin flippers flip a coin 8 times and try to get heads and get a binomial distribution you woukd have 1 flipper with 8 heads and 1 with 8 tails.
Is that one coin flipper really good or just lucky. The draft could be the same way. All scouts are roughly equally good so their performance relative to eachother may be random.
One area that is random is picking stocks. No one year over year picking stocks can consistantly outperform random chance.
