Believe their picks in that timeframe also have the most combined NHL games total out of any team in the NHL.
Thats including the 2017 draft, which really only produced Valimaki and Ruzicka.
All that despite only making 19 picks in those 3 drafts.
I'd say that's a very good batting average.

Not true.
From 2015-2017, the Flames have 8 draft picks to play at least 1 NHL game, for a total of 1,160 games.
7 of those players can be considered graduated, imo, with only Ruzicka not really there yet.
8 out of 19 is 42 percent, which is pretty good.
On the other hand, Boston has had 15 players play in the NHL, for a total of 2,244 games..As for guys who can be considered graduated, the numbers are a little hard to put a hard number on, because they have a few guys that say, spent last year on the roster but haven't played a ton of games yet; guys like Zboril and Vladar and Swayman, etc.
Boston had 22 picks, and 15 out of 22 is an astounding 68 percent.
