If you are saying that 75% of teams have a homegrown top 5 pick and out of those teams 12.5% of them have won the Cup over the past 5 years and 25% of teams do not have a top 5 homegrown pick and 12.5% of those teams have won a Stanley cup over the past 5 years I would agree with you.

If we could just zap our roster and get great rules to draft players from other teams the ability to shake down half the league so they can have you pick a player they don’t want drafted do you think it would be fair to use that as an example ?
You can skirt the question all you want, just like the rider fan. How will the Flames get the elite talent ?
Or maybe you like the Sutter model feee agent shopping for scraps just to back into a 8tj place finish to get destroyed. Or the Treliving when you push your chips in when a fluke playoff appearance happens with a roster with players like David Jones, Joe Colbourne having career years.
