If they are the argument that drafting superstars doesn’t work I don’t know what to say . They are the perfect example that a couple superstars can make up for many other deficiencies

I only hope we can experience this level of failure in the future (straight Stanley cup appearances)
Just to confirm, with the oilers, were talking about two of the top 3 franchise forwards currently in the game with one being a generational player. The odds of drafting that generational player + one other top 3 player in a 32 team league is insanely low. Like 1 in 2000 type numbers.

And these oilers still haven't won a cup.
