except that time they were 2nd overall...and the other division title. And the 5 trips to the playoffs in the last decade.
Oilers picked first overall 4 times and have zero division titles and zero wins past the second round.

You keep throwing that tidbit out there, but it's misleading at best.
Since 2009-10 the Flames finished:
Top half(1-14): 2 times
Mushy middle(15-20): 9 times
Bottom 10(21-32): 3 times
So in 9 out of the last 14 years the Flames were supposed to pick in the 12-19 range. 8 of them were in the 12-17 range.
