Maybe the worst 10 game NHL stint ever.
You are making a point on how bad the NHLe is as a metric.
Kyle Connor did not come close to putting up Mangiapane-like numbers in the AHL and scored at the 60 pt level in the NHL.
Nic Petan has nearly as great AHL numbers , but scores at a 4th liner rate in the NHL.
They are different leagues.

Hmmm...a talented young Flames forward struggled to produce?
Who were his linemates?
Oh, right...
It’s almost as if circumstance (line-mates) is an important part of successfully developing young players at the NHL level.
