It definitely isn't a one year plan. I think a lot of those players are two year out. I think the difference between the scenarios is that the Oilers had all their eggs in one basket at the forward position. I think our prospects are at each position which is a lot more balanced which can only help getting things turned in the right direction.
IMO I fully expect at least one more season where we pick in the top 5.
