Oilers Postgame 43: Butterfinger Butterflies
Above is the majestic Chaos Butterfly, the wing beats of which can topple whole cities. That is if you believe in the basic principles of chaos theory, the premise that a complex system that is sensitive to the inputs of its manipulators can have a plethora of different results when they vary even slightly. In terms of hockey, it is the 'every inch counts' theory or the 'don't miss that rebound with a gaping net in front of you Gilbert oh no they are going back the other w-- damnit' theory. I can specifically point out four of the LA goals that were a result of bad luck, bad bounces, or plain old Edmonton Oiler chaos.
