I'm sure there are other teams who have done it before and after, but only the Oilers managed to accomplish not being in the playoffs for another 10 seasons after that.

Panthers made the finals in their 3rd year. Made the POs 5 times in the next 23 years (never past round 1). This year the Devils will have made the POs once in 9 years since they were in the finals (lost in round one 3 years ago).
