Of the players you listed, none of the forwards have proven to be top-line players on top teams.

Markstrom is 34, and quite likely never playing for the Flames again.

Weegar and Andersson are good players, but I’d say it’s unlikely that they’re both top pairing defencemen on a top team. Weegar is #2 in my eyes, and Andersson is a #3 or #4.

It’s not a magic-bean lottery. It’s the NHL entry draft, and it’s where Stanley Cup Champions actually build their foundation.
If you look back at all of the drafts it’s a magic bean lottery. The stars from each year come from all over the place.
