I think it does.

Look at LA's rebuild. They were in the cellar for a decade. Pittsburgh, Boston and Chicago obviously. Islanders made the playoffs last year, Florida won the division in 2012.

There is obviously only one cup but the bad teams are improving. It's still tough to make the playoffs (16/30) and if there is mismanagement, a team falls back a few years. In the Oilers case, forever.
