There will be a whopping 12 NHL games tonight! Hold on, here comes my winners!
New York Rangers - Boston Bruins
The way the Bruins won the last game, I just have to give it to them. Boston wins!
Dallas Stars - Columbus Blue Jackets
I feel this one could go either way, but the Stars are probably the hotter (or less cold) of the teams. Dallas wins!
Pittsburgh Penguins - Buffalo Sabres
Do I need to explain myself even? Pittsburgh wins!
New York Islanders - New Jersey Devils
The Islanders are hot right now, and the Devils are not. Easy pick, New York Islanders wins!
Washington Capitals - Philadelphia Flyers
Another meeting between these giants. I think it will be a close game. The Caps won the other day, and I think they have a slight edge here. Washington wins!
Nashville Predators - Tampa Bay Lightning
The Bolts have dominated these meetings, winning all four so far. I don't expect a change here. Tampa Bay wins!
Chicago Blackhawks - Florida Panthers
The Panthers have won both meetings so far, and I rate them higher, but I think this will be a close game. Still, I have to pick a side, and I think it's an easy decision. Florida wins!
Winnipeg Jets - Toronto Maple Leafs
Third game in a row between these two. Both games have been close. I expect another close game, but I think the Leafs have more to bring. Toronto wins!
Montreal Canadiens - Calgary Flames
This is a huge game for both teams. They will probably be fighting for the last playoff spot towards the end of the season. The Flames won the previous meeting, and looked really solid. Bringing in Sutter as a coach really had an impact on their play. They played faster, and they looked more solid in their own zone. I expect a low scoring game, and I think that the Flames have a slight advantage. It could go either way, but I have to pick a side. Calgary wins!
Vegas Golden Knights - St Louis Blues
It was a really close game between these two last night. It could have gone either way, but Vegas ended up winning. I think the next game can go either way too, and I think that the Blues will get the win this time. St Louis wins!
Edmonton Oilers - Vancouver Canucks
Back-to-back game for the Oilers, and while the Nucks are rested. Also, Vancouver has looked pretty good recently. I could see it go either way, but being rested will probably be a big factor here. Vancouver wins!
San Jose Sharks - Anaheim Ducks
The Sharks won clearly last night. The way it looked, I have to give them the advantage here. San Jose wins!
In summary, my winners are:
Boston Bruins
Dallas Stars
Pittsburgh Penguins
New York Islanders
Washington Capitals
Tampa Bay Lightning
Florida Panthers
Toronto Maple Leafs
Calgary Flames
St Louis Blues
Vancouver Canucks
San Jose Sharks
