NJD at Boston. I can't see too much coming out of this game, likely NEw Jersey will slow the game down to a grueling pace to the point where Boston's scorers can't do their thing.

Phoenix at NYI. The way the Isles have been playing, this could be another Bryzgalov shutout.

Montreal at Philadelphia. Oooh, a good game! I'll give it to Philly because its at home.

Ottawa at Pittsburgh. Possibly a high scoring game, of cours eOttawa will probably win comfortably because they will score more on Pitt's inferior goaltending.

Calgary at TBL. Unless Kipper has a "stand on his head" type game I predict TB's top line is going to put up a lot of points.

Edmonton at Detroit. The wings will undoubtedly crush the Soilers.

Colorado at Nashville. Colorado...Stastny will stand out in this game methinks. Nashville can't win without gifts from the officials.

Florida at STL
LAK at Dallas, Just don't go into overtime....

Vancouver at SJS. Same as earlier, with the added disadvantage for the Canucks that they've had to go so far in California in just two days

SJ 3-0 over Vancouver in the 2nd. Sanford pulled in favor of MacIntyre. Ducks should watch this game for how-to purposes.

My boys are wasted, injured, and in the middle of an eight-game road trip. They're done.

That may be the case, but they certainly put up a valiant effort in SJ. Even if the situation had been reversed and Anaheim played Vancouver later in their road trip, I've got the feeling the Canucks would've had NO problem getting up for a game against the Ducks. And probably winning too, considering the way the Ducks play.
