Looking at the numbers since the Lockout in 2004-05 the efficiency is lower at 28%, but this makes sense given the drafts over the past couple of years and the time it takes to develop a player.

I’m no statistician by any stretch, I’m horrible at math. I’m just a hockey fan with a bit of statistical curiosity. Let me know if there are any errors as the data provided was collected by myself and there is no single resource out there with all this information, especially the GM data.
