Historically, you can almost count on one hand the number of players that have ever been drafted by the Flames organization that have hit 100 points in a season prior to jumping into the NHL. It’s extremely rare. If Calgary gets three of them in one draft, that would be pretty nuts and might just signify the turning point the organization has been looking for the past 30 years.

I went through the exercise last year when Parekh hit 100 in junior, it has not happened often.

Fleury
Nieuwendyk
Hull
Lombardi
Ryder
Mangiapane (did it twice! )
Tkachuk
Kerins
Parekh

I think that’s all of them. As the list can attest to, it’s not a guarantee of anything, but three in one draft would be crazy.
