Yeah, uh, sorry no guides on the weekend, the kids were sent away to their grandparents for the first time since...hell i can't remember. As much of a lost weekend as you can have in your early 30's with a bad back and spending an afternoon looking at model homes.

I hate my own house now BTW.

Anyway, here are your lottery standings:

| Points       | Odds at #1 |       |
| ------------ | ---------- | ----- |
| Buffalo      | 43         | 20%   |
| Edmonton     | 47         | 13.5% |
| Arizona      | 49         | 11.5% |
| Toronto      | 57         | 9.5%  |
| Carolina     | 57         | 8.5%  |
| Columbus     | 58         | 7.5%  |
| New Jersey   | 66         | 6.5%  |
| Dallas       | 68         | 6.0%  |
| Philadelphia | 69         | 5.0%  |
| Colorado     | 71         | 3.5%  |
| Ottawa       | 71         | 3.0%  |
| Florida      | 72         | 2.5%  |
| San Jose     | 72         | 2.0%  |
| Los Angeles  | 75         | 1.0%  |

Alright! Go Leafs! Back down to 27th place and 9.5% shot at #1! Man I hope Arizona and Edmonton go on winning streaks.

Here are tonight games:

**[Edmonton Oilers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/edmonton-oilers?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Detroit Red Wings](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/detroit-red-wings?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome:Edmonton over Detroit in regulation**  
It doesn't matter if Detroit gets a point, but I like it when they lose.

**[New York Islanders](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/new-york-islanders?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Toronto Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome: NY over Toronto in regulation**  
Gotta keep those points away from the ACC, and give the Isles a 3 point lead on 1st in their division.

**[Anaheim Ducks](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/anaheim-ducks?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Vancouver Canucks](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/vancouver-canucks?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome: Meh. Let's say Anaheim over Vancouver in regulation.**  
No Lottery hits here but Anaheim getting 2 points keeps them ahead of Nashville. I also dislike the other Canadian teams, so let's give the Canucks no points and let LA take their spot.

**[Nashville Predators](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/nashville-predators?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Arizona Coyotes](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/arizona-coyotes?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome: Arizona over Nashville in regulation.**  
One game that affects two picks. Arizona all the way on this one.

**[Pittsburgh Penguins](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/pittsburgh-penguins?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at San Jose sharks** 
**Best outcome: San Jose over Pittsburgh in regulation**  
No worries for the Leafs on this one, but I want SJ to make it over Calgary and would love to see people panic i nthe hockey mecca if the Pens barely make the playoffs in a wild card spot.

Big night tonight. Got islanders! Go Coyotes!
