Game On!

The NHL Season kicks off tomorrow, and like any self respecting Canadian, I'm giddy with anticipation! With that in mind, I thought I would share with you 10 fearless predictions for the upcoming season.

--------------------------------------------------------

1. Dany Heatley will win the Rocket Richard trophy, the Ottawa Senators will miss the playoffs again, and Bryan Murray will be fired.

2. Marian Gaborik will miss 40 games with (wait for it) a groin injury.

3. The Toronto Maple Leafs may have added a boatload of "truculence", but they'll still miss the playoffs - Quelle Surprise!

4. Even with John Tavares, the New York Islanders will still suck.

5. In a stunning announcement that would make Brett Favre proud, Mats Sundin announces he is un-retiring and will join the New York Rangers for their playoff run.

6. Ovechkin will score a goal that will be even more spectacular than this one!

7. The Flyers will win the East, The Sharks will win the West - both will be upset in the first round of the playoffs.

8. The NHL will ban the use of BlackBerry's around the league.

9. Canada will defeat Russia to win Olympic Gold!








10. The Pittsburgh Penguins repeat as Stanley Cup Champions defeating the Detroit Red Wings - Sidney Crosby still can't grow a playoff beard.
