I still disagree, The Oilers drafted 6th in 2007. The Flames may have missed the playoffs the last few years, but they were still close until this past season.

Flames are now where the Oilers were in 2007. Difference is Flames are admitting a full rebuild, whereas the Oilers treaded water for a few more seasons before admitting it.
