I'm suggesting the Flames of late seem to be hitting above league averages.
I don't disagree with you about the Flames hitting above average, especially when we take into account 2015, and 2016. That said, it seemed as though the Flames drafting came back down to earth over the last couple of drafts(which could've been the result of COVID).

2-4 players from the 2nd round usually become top players. Another 5-7 become NHL regulars(400+ NHL GP). So the chance of getting a regular NHLer is probably around 25-33%.
