With the Calgary Flames now passing the midpoint of the season and gearing up for a big playoff run, I thought it would be a good time to take a look back at last offseason’s Top 25 Under 25 list and what has changed since then. This isn’t so much a re-ranking, but instead just looking at general trends for players who have either overperformed or underperformed their ranking so far in 2021-22.

As a late round pick from 2021 and having not played the year prior, it wasn’t a surprise to see Beck ranked so low in this list but after a strong to the year he will move way up in the 2022 list.
