I already said it. You made an inaccurate inference, so my response to you was largely unrelated to the original point. The original point is that the number of elite players is largely unrelated to the average talent level of NHL teams, since that is in part a function of the number of teams in the league. What you spoke of is a different matter. I'm not going to speak in absolutes (no Sith) and "guarantee" that the number of elite players grown, but it is pretty obvious that the number has grown, just not at a one to one rate.

The only thing that needs to be judged is what % of the worlds best are in the NHL at a given time.
Canadians just don‘t make up 100% anymore and I have yet to see a single person say otherwise.

The nationality only matters because it shows that the talent pool has grown beyond Canada alone. Unless you think that Canada has regressed significantly, the addition of elite players from other nations means that the number of elite players has gone up. This has been discussed and explained a million times already, so I am not expecting any changes in opinion.
