Errata
I'd also like to thank Alanah for having us on the Crazy Canucks podcast. I just had a listen, and it wasn't half bad! I have one thing I want to take back, but first, a few corrections and clarifications:
**I should really stop saying that four teams in a division can't make the playoffs, since four from the Atlantic made it last season. I still think it's foolish to predict that four teams (or one team) from a single division will make it, but it is quite obviously possible.
**The Flames have 8 owners, and one of them is not Ron Joyce. Ron Joyce and Grant Bartlett sold out to the other owners in February 2001. Why? Get ready for this:
**Here's that Cosh mock-prediction I referenced:
**Pretty sure I've linked it before, but here's the confounding +/- Home/Road splits for the Sedins last year.
**Also, I think I've changed my mind about whether to pick Vancouver or Minnesota as a playoff team. More on that later, probably.

Joyce and Bartlett reportedly wanted out because they didn't see a future for NHL hockey in Canada...

10. The Oilogosphere will band together to raise the price of a Porsche 930 Turbo and present it anonymously to Miikka Kiprusoff.

Sounded good, guys! A solid interview.

Yeah, if you are switching horses, I'm on board there. I think the Wild were the tougher playoff opponent, at least.
Not an erratum: Nick's is indeed awesome. Absolutely packed on Flames/Stamps game nights, so get there super early, but their steak sandwiches are fantastic.
