Of the 23 players currently on the NHL roster, 11 were drafted by the Flames. It's 10 if you send Gillies down and bring up Rittich. Andersson is included in the number, although he's only played 5 games this year. So, I wouldn't classify that most of the team is made of players drafted by the Flames. I would also mention the team has been eliminated from the playoffs with several games left in the regular season. Just drafting a player doesn't mean they'll turn out to be a great player. For every draft pick that turns out as well as Tkachuk, there are many more than turn out like Nemisz.
