Considering I am a tad late on predictions I will replace my previous predictions with obscenities and ask that you graciously count them as correct answers:

Dallas at Boston -- Buttsecks
NY Islanders at Washington -- Cornhole
Ottawa at Columbus -- Wanker
St. Louis at Montreal -- Fuckface
Edmonton at Florida -- Cock
Philadelphia at Carolina -- Shit
Calgary at Minnesota -- Piss
Vancouver at Phoenix -- Shitpiss
Buffalo at San Jose -- Sharks

I think they should just let me coach. I can do a much better job than Ron Rolston. They're looking pathetic right now.
