Okay this is tough, but here are my NHL predictions of the standings in each division:

EASTERN CONFERENCE:

Atlantic:
Toronto, Tampa, Florida, Buffalo (WC), Boston, Ottawa, Montreal. (Ottawa would make a strong case {and Buffalo} to push for a possible Wild Card spot. Ottawa has something to prove with a chip on their shoulder.

Metropolitan:
Washington, New Jersey, Pittsburgh, Columbus (WC), NY. Islanders, Carolina, Philadelphia, NY Rangers.

WESTERN CONFERENCE:

Central:
Winnipeg, Nashville, St. Louis, Colorado (WC), Dallas, Chicago, Minnesota,

Pacific:
San Jose, Vegas, Calgary, Edmonton, Los Angeles (WC), Arizona, Vancouver, Anaheim.

WC = Wild Card.

So what will happen to end the William Nylander situation ending today at 5pm?
I once thought that William would sign a bridge deal at 2 or 3 years. Now, I have absolutely no freakin' idea.
Throw pasta to the glass and hope it sticks?

Just announced - 6 years @ 6.9 mil.

In other NHL news, the league suspended defenceman Slava Voynov for the whole 2019-2020 season and the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs for his off-ice antics stemming from an arrest back in late 2014 for domestic violence.  Voynov hasn't played in the league since he got banned, but he started playing in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) for SKA Saint Petersburg where he won a Gagarin Cup in 2017, named in honour of former Russian cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin.

The Columbus Blue Jackets have pulled off a massive upset after beating the Lightning 7-3 in game 4 thus completing the first round sweep of the best team of the regular season.

Beautiful game by the Blue Jackets surprised and glad that they won.

Carolina beets Washington 4-3 in double over time. This was the third longest game 7 ever.

Brock McGinn scores the overtime winner.

Hurricanes forward Justin Williams is now 8-1 in game 7s during his career.

Hmm, I thought I had made first round predictions. 

Well, I would have been in the ass of the bus anyway. 1-7 would've been my record.

But R2 picks:

East:

N.Y. Islanders in 7.  (This was a very tough pick given that NYI essentially no longer have home ice advantage even though they're "at home in Brooklyn". ) Carolina is on fire and has a ton of momentum, too. 7 games, no doubt. But the Islanders, regardless of their 2 homes, or one, but rarely play in Uniondale, have an underrated team and Barry Trotz is a huge reason.

Columbus in 7. I would've to have seen the story of "Tortarella vs Toronto media". But nope.

Would've been very interesting to say the least. My concern is the long layoff. However, they swept the Tampa Bsy Lightning, they can beat anyone.

West:

San Jose in 6. Seems like at one point, the officials had gift-wrapped the series for the Golden Knights, but VGK just couldn't take advantage from G5 onwards, even that 'supposed' high stick against San Jose.  So, the ' make up call' in that ridiculous 5- minute major where the Sharks scored 4 times on that entire powerplay, still could've lost. But, no one cares, lol. This series will be interesting as Nathan McKinnon and Mikko Rantanen almost single-handedly took out Calgary. However, the vetter team will win and it'll be San Jose.

St. Louis in 6. So, this was the round where Winnipeg and Nashville supposed to have brmeen in. But along came the 'last place st New Years' St. Louis and an under the radar Dsllas who, oh ya, at Christmas, or New Years, too, their owner call them out. WpG and NSH I guess, if they were two high prized wrestlers and suddenly the card changed as they failed their drug tests, lol. But, STL were a cup favourite during preseason. So, guess we have to remember that. Just that, we 'misrenembered'.
