Rangers, Devils open home-and-home series in New Jersey
Hockey Betting Lines
02/20/2007 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils begin an
important home-and-home series this evening, with the first of the consecutive
meetings to take place at Continental Airlines Arena.
These two games carry importance for both teams but are especially crucial for
the Rangers, who come into tonight's showdown three points out of a playoff
spot. Montreal, the New York Islanders and Toronto are currently tied for the
Eastern Conference's final seed with 66 points, with New York having amassed
63 thus far.
Although New Jersey remains in first place in the Atlantic Division, the
Devils' lead has been trimmed to five points by Pittsburgh, a team which has
posted victories in 12 of its last 14 games.
New York enters the matchup having won four of its five most recent contests,
including Sunday's 2-1 decision over Chicago at Madison Square Garden. Martin
Straka and Marcel Hossa each scored first-period goals and Henrik Lundqvist
made the early lead stand up by stopping 21-of-22 shots.
The Rangers rebounded from Saturday's disappointing 5-3 home defeat to
Philadelphia, in which All-Star Brendan Shanahan was briefly hospitalized
after colliding with the Flyers' Mike Knuble in the third period. Shanahan
suffered a concussion and is sidelined indefinitely.
Defenseman Marek Malik also sat out Sunday's win because of a nagging shoulder
injury and is questionable to return tonight.
Jaromir Jagr assisted on Straka's goal to extend his individual scoring streak
to six games. The superstar right wing has amassed nine points (2 goals, 7
assists) during the run and has notched an assist in five straight outings.
Straka has now recorded a point in five consecutive games (3 goals, 4
assists).
New Jersey improved to 6-2-0 in February with Saturday's 2-0 triumph over the
Islanders at Nassau Coliseum. Martin Brodeur stopped all 26 chances he faced
to post his league-leading 11th shutout, while John Madden and Sergei Brylin
each lit the lamp in the win.
Brodeur responded from a subpar performance his previous time out, when the
future Hall of Famer surrendered five goals on 24 shots in a 5-4 home loss to
Pittsburgh on Friday.
Jamie Langenbrunner earned an assist on Brylin's marker and lengthened his
point streak to nine straight games, which is tied with Minnesota' Pavol
Demitra for the longest current tear in the NHL. The 31-year-old has three
goals and 11 assists over the course of the streak.
Brian Gionta, who leads the Devils with 24 goals, missed his second straight
game with a groin pull and remains day-to-day.
The area rivals have split six meetings so far this season, although the
Devils have won the last two matchups. The Rangers have also struggled in
their recent visits across the river, having dropped four of their last five
and six of their eight most recent regular-season games at the Meadowlands.
This series will conclude Thursday at New York's Madison Square Garden.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
