Ok, so maybe it does matter, but not really at the level of "Calgary or Edmonton" (other than sink factor, of course). It's not like the Oil Kings drafting Iginla precludes the Flames from drafting him, should the opportunity and desire arise.

It's not like 1994 and Edmonton drafting 5 spots ahead of Dallas picks [checks notes] Steve Kelly.
