The Northwest division is the second Western Conference we’re looking at. The Flames got off to an early off-season start with trading for, and the signing of Jay Bouwmeester. Minnesota lost Gaborik to the Rangers, but brought in Havlat. The Canucks were able to re-sign the Sedin twins, but were unable to land Kaberle. Columbus’s big off-season move was the contract extension for Rick Nash, other than that, they didn’t do much. Edmonton will only be remember for getting snubbed by Dany Heatley.
