OK I'll pull Foo aside from Mangiapane and Dube if you want.
But ... Nemisz, Wahl and Howse never came close, they were junior scorers that couldn't make the adjustment to pro hockey.
Foo is an older prospect and has a lot tighter of a window to get it done. Last year his splits suggest he may have found it in the second half but he's a long way from home and cool.

2018 33 games .790 PPG
I certainly get your point but there is a division to this and the Flames have a few forwards above the Nemisz line.
