I said Calgary has done the same with their top draft picks as Edmonton has. Calgary received three picks 6th or higher and all those picks played in the NHL their first season.
It's the same with the Oilers. The lowest pick they kept in the NHL was Gagner. Nurse at 7th went back. Anyone lower than that went back. If the Oilers keep Yamamoto up it would be an exception.
So when it comes to picks 6th and higher, both organizations have plotted roughly the same course.

But you have to admit how they managed Leon was curious. Maybe it has paid off but they burned a year for no reason whatsoever.
