Penalty Minutes Backs Oilers Of Crosby

Hockey Betting Lines

Reimer stopped 12 shots in the first period, 21 in the second and 16 in the third to record his third shutout of the season and sixth of his career in Saturday's blowout over the Senators.

 

"It's obviously a lot of fun," Reimer said after the shutout in Ottawa. "I wish I could take credit for it, but the guys played unbelievable tonight. Our D-men played great, boxing guys out."

 

The Maple Leafs have won two straight and three of their last four home games and are boasting a 15-8-4 record at Air Canada Centre this season.

 

For Nugent-Hopkins, it was his first game back since he suffered a left shoulder injury on January 2. The No. 1 overall pick did not have a point in regulation or overtime, but he was able to end the game in the shootout. Nugent-Hopkins picked up the puck at center ice and went in deliberately on Wings goalie Joey MacDonald. Nugent-Hopkins faked forehand-backhand and fired a quick wrist shot to the blocker side of MacDonald.

 

Devan Dubnyk stopped Danny Cleary on Detroit's final attempt to seal the win for the Oilers, who broke a seven-game slide against the Red Wings.

 

Coming off an amazing eight-point game in an 8-4 win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday, Sam Gagner continued his offensive assault on the NHL with two goals and an assist in regulation. Jordan Eberle also added a pair of goals for the Oilers, who got 35 saves from Dubnyk en route to their first three-game winning streak since a six-game run from Oct. 22-Nov. 3.

 

Edmonton defenseman Theo Peckham has missed the last two games after getting hit in the face with a puck during practice. His concussion tests came back negative and he could play this evening against the Leafs.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook

Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds.  The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.

Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.

Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
