I'm a big fan of Byron Bader's NHL Equivalency Model and his site hockeyprospecting.com

Based on his model and his calculation of start probability here are his top 15 forwards, and top 5 d-men

Top 15 Forwards Based on His Star Model :
Rossi
Lafreniere
Byfield
Perfetti
Jarvis
Perreault
Amirov
Mercer
Zary
Holtz
Foerster
Stutzle
Colangelo
Nevolin
Beryozkin

Top 5 D Based on his Model:
Drysdale
Cotton
Grans
Constantinou
McCourt

So based on production and comparison to past players the centers with the production that falls in line closest to guys that were "Stars" at the NHL level that may fall into our range are Zary, Perreault, or Jarvis. Also if the Flames could somehow get into the top 5 to draft Rossi that would be amazing.

Has he done this for past drafts, and if yes, how accurate was he?

I really hope the Flames draft Cotton.
