Sharks eye West's top seed in home test against Avalanche
Hockey Betting Lines
03/22/2009 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Having already clinched the Pacific Division title, the San Jose Sharks can regain the top seed in the Western Conference when they host
the lowly Colorado Avalanche tonight at HP Pavilion.
The Sharks have 104 points on the season and are just one point in back of
idle Detroit for not only the top spot in the West, but also in the race for
the Presidents' Trophy.
San Jose has won two straight and four of its last five contests. The Sharks
were in action Saturday afternoon and recorded an easy home win over the
Dallas Stars. Joe Pavelski tallied a goal and two assists, as the Sharks
downed the struggling Stars, 5-2.
Joe Thornton, Devin Setoguchi, Milan Michalek, and Patrick Marleau also lit
the lamp for the Sharks, who won their third consecutive game at home. Marleau
and Setoguchi also added one assist apiece for the victors.
Evgeni Nabokov made 23 saves and improved to 4-0-0 since returning on March 14
from an upper-body injury.
The Sharks are 29-3-4 as the host this year and are completing a three-game
homestand tonight. San Jose's next two games will be on the road against
Chicago and Nashville.
The Avalanche, who are last in the West with 64 points, have lost three
straight on the heels of back-to-back wins.
Colorado last played on Thursday against visiting Edmonton and was handed a
humiliating loss. Sam Gagner scored his first career hat trick and registered
an assist as the Oilers pounded the Avalanche, 8-1, at Pepsi Center.
Cody McLeod scored the lone goal for Colorado, which has also dropped 10 of 13
overall. Peter Budaj allowed eight goals on only 24 shots in the Avs' most
lopsided loss of the season.
The Avalanche are just 13-22-2 as the guest this year and have lost two
straight and seven of their last nine road games. Colorado's next two games
will come on home ice, beginning with Wednesday's test against Anaheim.
San Jose has won both meetings against the Avs this season and this will be
the first encounter between the clubs in Silicon Valley. The Sharks have won
four of the last five overall matchups against Colorado.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
