It's a dumb post for many reasons.
- The Oiler roster has 2 players on their roster drafted outside the 1st (McLeod and Skinner)
- The Flames roster has 4, 5 if you include Kylington who would be on the roster under normal circumstances
- Of the 8 guys that Stauffer is trumpeting about, 4 of them were drafted using a pick higher than the Flames have had in their ENTIRE history.
Basically yes there are different ways of building a team. The Oilers built their team by being a historically bad club and fluking their way into the most important payers on their team. And that's something to brag about?
Idiot.
