Hockey Betting Lines
02/25/2007 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Capitals will try for consecutive victories
for the first time since early January, as they host the New Jersey Devils in
the finale of a home-and-home series at Verizon Center.
The Capitals ended a five-game losing streak (0-3-2) on Saturday afternoon at
the Meadowlands, notching a 4-2 win over the Devils. Brent Johnson made 29
saves and four different Washington players netted goals in the victory at
Continental Airlines Arena.
Milan Jurcina, Alexander Semin, Matt Pettinger and Tomas Fleischmann scored
for the Capitals, who haven't posted back-to-back victories since a three-game
winning streak from January 4-9.
Washington has 58 points on the year and is second from the bottom in the
Eastern Conference standings.
Tonight's game marks the beginning of a four-game homestand for the Caps, who
are 14-12-5 as the host club on the year.
The Devils, meanwhile, had a three-game winning streak snapped in Saturday's
game. Cam Janssen and Jay Pandolfo scored for Atlantic Division-leading New
Jersey, which was coming off a home-and-home sweep of the New York Rangers
earlier this week.
Martin Brodeur made 26 saves for the Devils, who had won six straight in the
series before Washington's triumph on Saturday.
The Devils were again without Brian Gionta, who sat out his third straight
game with a groin injury. Gionta, who has 24 goals and 42 points on the year,
is expected to sit out today's game as well, but could be ready to return for
Tuesday's test in Pittsburgh.
The Devils' 82 points on the season has the team seven points ahead of
Pittsburgh in the Atlantic and in second place in the East.
Jersey, which is 16-11-2 away from the Meadowlands, begins a brief two-game
road trip today. The Devils will also visit Pittsburgh on Tuesday.
