Who knows this?

there is an outside chance in the West that the whole Central Division could make the post season playoffs.

Wings...2nd
BlackHawks...4th
BlueJackets...6th
Preditors...7th
Blues are 10th at this posting, they are winning tonight and would put them in a tie for 8th with Edmonton...

Now I'm not looking for any bashings of the division here. I'm asking if any entire division has ever made the playoffs.

Tin Puck has informed us that the entire Adams Division(only 5 team division to do it) made the playoffs in 1980/81 season.

The teams were:
Buffalo
Boston
Minnesota
Quebec
Toronto

in 77/78 and 78/79 the Division "NHLP", a 4 team division did it.

The teams were:
Islanders
Flyers
Flames
Rangers

I think the entire Adams Division did it the 80-81 season. Pretty sure that was the last time it happened, somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
