The sun was shinning in 2006, I won't go back any further because it's kind or irrelevant (different management/different era). I would suggest that if everything goes right they might finish just outside the playoffs this year. Take a 20 year sample starting in 2007, there is no way they will have 0 playoff appearances by 2027 even if they keep Lowe and the rest of the gong show. Well, I guess it is the oilers so....
Side question: When will the oilers start to be known more for being awful than having 5 cups? To me their history is as follows:
1979-1990: Glory years, great teams can't dispute that
1991-2004: Abject mediocrity
2005-Now:
5-10 more years of this and we will be talking about the oilers as being the worst professional sports team in history...
