Like buying a 2016 luxury car from an owner who drove it into the ground and obliterated the transmission in just three years. It's a commitment and an effort with no guarantee it will work like new ever again.
Hall won an MVP within 24 months of leaving the Oilers. Schultz won a Stanley Cup 2 months later and then another one after leading his team in ice time sans Letang. Dubnyk left Edmonton and within six months was a Vezina candidate. And those are just off the top of my head.

It's not a factor.
