It's a big game tonight. Carolina vs Columbus. We need them this to go to OT and Carolina needs a point tonight. let's all put our hatred of Arturs Irbe aside and cheer on the Staalicanes!

Leafs are sitting in 5th, so we need to embrace the shootout instead of curse it tonight.

**[Columbus Blue Jackets](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/columbus-blue-jackets?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Carolina Hurricanes](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/carolina-hurricanes?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome: Carolina over Columbus in Overtime**  
A 3 point game is great for Toronto, it would put for Carolina and Columbus at 59 points, 1 back of the Leafs, and give the Leafs back 4th place.

**[Dallas Stars](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/dallas-stars?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at Philadelphia Hurricanes**  
**Best outcome: Dallas over Philly in overtime**  
This result puts both of these teams at 70 points, well back of the Leafs.

**[New York Rangers](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/new-york-rangers?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [New York Islanders](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/new-york-islanders?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome: NY Islanders in regulation**  
I want the Isles to win their division, thats it, no lottery implications here.

**[Boston Bruins](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/boston-bruins?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Ottawa Senators](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/ottawa-senators?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome: Ottawa in regulation**  
The Sens beating the Bruins moves them ahead of Florida, lower in the lottery and keeps the Bruins from feeling any safer about their lottery spot. win-win-win.

**[Tampa Bay Lightning](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/tampa-bay-lightning?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Montreal Canadiens](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/montreal-canadiens?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best Outcome: Depends on your needs**  
Lightning fans want them to win, non-habs fans mostly agree with that. i would be ok with a Habs win, because it keeps round one Habs/Bruins.

**[Winnipeg Jets](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/winnipeg-jets?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [St. Louis Blues](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/st-louis-blues?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best Outcome: St. Louis in regulation**  
This gets the Blues closer to Nashville for the division lead, and keeps Winnipeg from building a lead over LA for the final wild card spot.

**[Los Angeles Kings](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/los-angeles-kings?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) at [Colorado Avalanche](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/colorado-avalanche?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)** 
**Best outcome: Colorado over LA in overtime** 
No real lottery implications here, it would make Florida's odds better though. Plus LA gets a point to creep up on Winnipeg. LA winning isn't terrible either.

Big, big game with CBJ vs CAR. It will only be available in Canada on Game Centre Live.
