Okay, but I'd like to note that the Mishneh Brurah 682:1 writes:

>>> It's written in sforim that in the text of Al Hanisim, one should say "v'al hanisim" with a vav, both in Tefilah and in Birkas Hamazon.

Aruch Hashulchan 682:1 says the same thing in different words:

>>> All eight days of Chanukah one says Al Hanisim in Birkas Hamazon in Birkas Haaretz. That is, he begins "nodeh l'cha" and says up to "uvchol shaah", and afterwards he says "v'al hanisim" until "l'shimcha hagadol", and afterwards he says "v'al hakol Hashem Elokeinu anachnu modim lach." And likewise in Tefilah, after Modim until "kivinu lach v'al hanisim" ... ... And it seems to me that one must say (tzarich lomar) "v'al hanisim", because even before it there are thanksgivings, and this is additional. In the sidurim it is written "al hanisim", but it appears that one must say with the vav.

Perhaps another illustration of acharonim Modifying minhag/nusach of rishonim?
