The stats you pointed out really doesn’t say much but yeah in general you can’t say the flames drafted well or not recently
I honestly can’t figure out if you have a point here. The poster I responded to claimed that Calgary Flames first round picks never seem to pan out. I noted that since 2013 all of the Calgary Flames first round picks are looking to pan out except for Pelletier. That’s a pretty good hit rate and the fact that Pelletier is the latest drafted of the whole group Makes it even more clear that this is not a flames drafting issue at al. They have drafted very well in the first round in the last 10-11 years
