The Edmonton Oilers were not good during the Decade of Darkness. Aside from being in the playoff conversation in 2007-08 and 2012-13 (mainly because of the lockout), the Oilers were almost always at the bottom of the league. From 2006-07 until 2015-16, the Oilers didn’t make the playoffs once, hence the nickname the “Decade of…
