Sugar's Birthday Monday Meltdown

First off I want to wish a Happy Birthday to our fellow writer Sugar. The doctors said your frail, weak body and immune system wouldn't make it past infancy, but you continue to defy modern medicine! Keep up the good fight little buddy and maybe next year we can finally get you off that ventilator, out of that giant plastic bubble, and in to the real world!

Tonight is my final night as a ghostwriter for Sugars Hockey Corner, all I have to say on my way out is this shit is really easy and our hockey record should be much better.  On to the picks!

Vancouver (+1.5) @ Tampa (WINNER!)
This winner is all about the Sedin twins as I expect them to go into Tampa and introduce them to some stink bombs twin style. Look for a ton of buddy puck between the Sedins and a few Tampa goals to keep this one close. In the end the Couv does just enough to keep this one within the +1.5 goal spread.

Minnesota @ Boston (-175) (WINNER!)
The Bruins are one of the oldest franchises in professional hockey. Yet every year it seems like they are able to reinvent themselves and continue to adapt with the times. Some analysts would argue that Boston doesn't shoot to score enough, but don't expect that tonight as they score 3 in the first and lockdown for a 3-0 win.

Phoenix (+1.5) @ LA (WINNER!)
The Yotes started out very hot this season and then went through a mean slump towards the middle of the season. In recent weeks though they have rebounded well and look closer to the team that people thought they were back in the fall. A lot of people believe this is due to the coach making the change of telling his players to shoot to score rather than just flipping wristers at the goal in an attempt to confuse him. This has lead to a huge increase in the number of goals scored and will undoubtedly revolutionize hockey as other teams start trying this "crazy" approach!
