Brodeur, Devils shut out Rangers

Hockey Betting Lines

02/07/2012 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Martin Brodeur extended his NHL record with the 117th shutout of his career, as the New Jersey Devils made a first period goal stand up in a 1-0 win over the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.

David Clarkson tallied the only goal for the Devils, who have now won five straight.

The Rangers appeared to tie the game with 3.5 seconds left, but Marian Gaborik crashed into Brodeur and was called for goalie interference, negating Artem Anisimov's potential equalizer.

Henrik Lundqvist was again marvelous in net, stopping 21-of-22 shots, but saw a personal four-game winning streak come to an end. New York, meanwhile, lost for only the second time in its last six games overall.

Brodeur, though, was the story, as the four-time Vezina Trophy winner stopped 30 shots, including 15 in the final period, to secure his first shutout since blanking the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 25 of last season.

It looked as if he would be denied the shutout late. With the Rangers net empty and time ticking down, Ryan Callahan wristed a shot from the left circle that Brodeur pushed aside. Gaborik then went into Brodeur, knocking him backwards into the net, while Anisimov buried the putback, only to see it waved off by a penalty.

The Rangers had their chances in the third period and outshot the Devils, 15-1. New York was also 0-for-3 on the power play and is scoreless in its last 17 tries with the extra skater.

The Devils took advantage of a Stu Bickel holding call and cashed in on the power play 8:14 into the opening period. From behind the net Zach Parise found a streaking Clarkson, who beat Lundqvist glove side for his 21st goal of the season.

Clarkson now has five goals in his last five games, while Parise extended his point streak to six games (5g, 3a).

Petr Sykora almost made it a two-goal game late in the first period, but his rocket from the top of the right circle hit the crossbar with time winding down.

The Rangers had a pair of terrific chances in the second period. Shortly into the period Brandon Prust missed the net, while with time ticking down in the stanza Brodeur used the left glove to turn aside a terrific opportunity from Carl Hagelin.

Game Notes

Lundqvist has allowed one goal or fewer in 11 of his last 19 games, and has held opponents to two or fewer goals in 27 games this season...The Devils have outscored the opposition 21-12 during their five game win streak.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
