In the last 10 years (2009-2019), The Penguins have drafted 7 times in the first round.
In the last 10 years (2009-2019) the Flames have drafted 10 times in the first round.
In the last 10 years (2009-2019) the Penguins have drafted 25 times in the top 3 rounds.
In the last 10 years (2009-2019) The Flames have drafted 27 times in the top 3 rounds.
Over that same time frame the Penguins have advanced past the 1st round 7 times and won the stanley cup 3 times, qualifying for the post season every year.
Over that same time frame the Flames have made the playoffs 3 times and advanced out of the 1st round one time, qualifying for the playoffs just 3 times. No Championships.
That difference in picks isn't even ####ing close to what it should be given the trajectory of each franchise over the last decade.
The Flames are NEVER going to win with this strategy and the evidence to affirm this is them never ####ing winning anything.
