03/07/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Anaheim Ducks haven't helped their cause for inclusion in the playoffs with their performance following the Olympic break. They'll have a chance to improve those chances with a critical seven-game homestand that starts up with tonight's clash with the Montreal Canadiens.
Anaheim has lost its first two tests since returning from the NHL's stoppage for the Vancouver Games, following up a 4-3 home setback to Colorado on Tuesday with last night's shutout defeat at fellow Pacific Division member Phoenix. The Coyotes' Ilya Bryzgalov stopped all 32 shots that came his way in the 4-0 decision, the Russian goaltender's seventh whitewash of the season.
Jonas Hiller saved just 26-of-30 chances for Anaheim, which now finds itself tied for 12th place in the Western Conference standings and five points back of Detroit for the eighth and last postseason seed.
"I think that everybody on this team needs to do more," said Anaheim head coach Randy Carlyle after Saturday's loss. "This is a team game and we win and lose as a team."
The Ducks sorely need to take advantage of this upcoming stretch of games at the Honda Center, where the club had been playing extremely well prior to the Olympic hiatus. Anaheim had ripped off a franchise-record 11 consecutive victories on home ice before Tuesday's loss to the Avalanche and are a strong 19-9-2 as the host this season.
They've also had good success when facing the Canadiens in recent years. The Ducks have won their last three matchups against tonight's opponent, with Montreal's latest triumph in the series coming at the Honda Center on March 8, 2004. The Habs have fallen in three of their last four visits to Anaheim.
Montreal has fared pretty well on its current road trip, though, improving to 2-1-0 on the four-game trek after Saturday's 4-2 verdict over Los Angeles. The win gave the Canadiens sole possession of eighth place in the Eastern Conference, and they trail rival Boston by only one point for the No. 7 spot.
Brian Gionta gave Montreal a quick lead when he scored just 22 seconds into the game, and the diminutive winger added an assist on Benoit Pouliot's tally that put the Canadiens up 3-1 early in the third period.
"Anytime you can jump on a team like that early on, those things kind of set the tone for the game," Gionta said. "We were able to do it again in the third [period]. I think we were much more confident [Saturday]. I think we just need to be a little more aggressive, stick with our game plan and not sit back."
Dominic Moore added a shorthanded goal and Scott Gomez notched a pair of assists for Montreal, which will play its next three games at home following tonight's tilt.
The Canadiens will be without Maxim Lapierre for a second straight night. The center began serving a four-game suspension on Saturday for injuring San Jose's Scott Nichol with a late hit in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks.

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) Michael Bush (RB, Louisville) Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia) Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville) Chris Leak (QB, Florida) Mike Hart (RB, Michigan) Ted Ginn (WR, Ohio State) Darius Walker (RB, Notre Dame) Drew Tate (QB, Iowa) Marshawn Lynch (RB, Cal) Kenny Irons (RB, Auburn) Chad Henne (QB, Michigan) Kyle Wright (QB, Miami) Drew Stanton (QB, Michigan State) Kenneth Darby (RB, Alabama) JaMarcus Russell (QB, LSU) Drew Weatherford (QB, Florida State) Blake Mitchell (QB, South Carolina) Reggie Ball (QB, Georgia Tech) |
