Other than having a nice little poll at the end to Jihad, the article promotes a book called Rob Vollman’s Hockey Abstract, which attempts to be for hockey what Bill James' Baseball Abstract did for the MLB (eventually).

To catch reader interest, the author writes about how the oilers blew major chunks last year (durr) and he says the Leafs and Flames were 28th and 29th, with luck factors removed. Further, he projects the Flames to be among the worst next year as well.

Vollman also projects the Senators as having the best odds to emerge as President's Trophy winners in 2013/14.

Has anyone read this book? Worthwhile?

Edit: title for troutman
