Measure of success is who wins a cup. We would be the Canucks with ZERO cups without Vernon.
I guarantee you I watched more games in that era. The Flames had a pretty decent team. And Vernon was good for Calgary a very short period of time two POs. You know he lost more series to the Oilers than he won, plus losing to the Jets, Kings, etc. etc. Plus he was a dick.

And no, they wouldn't have been the Canucks since they regularly beat the Canucks - eg 1984, when they beat the Canucks and then took your stacked Oilers to 7 games, and those same Oilers lost only 1 other game the whole PO. Or 83 when they also beat the Canucks. Or 82 when the Canucks didn't even make the POs.
