The percentages are made up of course but I feel that they would be roughly accurate.

The Flames can use more decent depth guys since the development system seems to not work.
More like

2nd round pick = 1% chance of an impact top 6 player, 5% chance of depth guy, 94% chance they never play more than 10 games in the NHL.

Seriously, draft picks are so severely over rated.
