Oleg Smirnov (born April 8, 1980) is a Russian professional ice hockey right winger currently playing for HC Ryazan in the Russian Major League. He played in the Russian Superleague for Kristall Elektrostal, HC Lipetsk, HC Spartak Moscow, HC Dynamo Moscow, HC CSKA Moscow and Metallurg Novokuznetsk. He was drafted 144th overall in the 1998 NHL Entry Draft by the Edmonton Oilers.
Oleg Smirnov played in the Russian Superleague before he was drafted in the 1998 NHL Entry Draft.
The statement fits into the correct category because the excerpt states that Oleg played in the Russian Superleague, but it doesn't say when he did it. Therefore, there's no way to know if he played in the RS before he was drafted by the NHL. The system may have struggled with this because of the order the information was given in the excerpt.
