Quite the take, especially when many people have been very unimpressed by their recent draft hauls. Just because they've drafted a lot doesn't mean they've drafted better.
You might find some individual "scouts" that like their picks, but every draft model truly dislikes their recent drafts (and loves Calgary's)

Byron Bader's statistic-based model has the Flames ranked as having the 6th best prospect pool in the NHL, 3 spots higher than Ottawa

Even if Ottawa had drafted better than the Flames, what does that change? We're not allowed to criticize other teams? Lol
