Sure, if you assume Calgary minor hockey comprises 1000 kids a year. Which it does not.
Also, I would imagine that number is used in connection with community level organizations; 1 in 100,000 kids who plays through Trails West, Simons Valley, Mindapore, Blackfoot etc and doesn't go on to play for the Royals, Canucks etc makes the NHL.
Even at the club team level, the NHL success rate isn't that high.
