All this is true, and despite how bad the Oilers have been, and let's not include the dynasty years, we can see how the Flames franchise has done in comparison omitting the most successful era of the Oilers franchise:
90/91 season-present
Playoff series wins: Edm 9 Cgy 4
Playoff appearances: Edm 9 Cgy 11
SCF appearances: Edm 1 Cgy 1
Playoff round 1 exits: Edm 4 Cgy 9
