Skinny errata

Quick correction:

I wrote:
This was the fourth time game 1 of a series has been decided in overtime and the Isles are now 4-0  (1980 QF, 1980 Final, 1982 Final).

It's actually the sixth time  (Isles beat NJ in OT in game 1 in 1988 and lost in Washington in game 1 in 1985)

So the correct reference is:
This was the sixth time game 1 of a series has been decided in overtime and the Isles are now 5-1  (Winning in 1980 QF, 1980 Final, 1982 Final, and 1988 DSF, while losing in 1985 DSF).
