New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The National Hockey League suspended Anaheim Ducks forward Jean-Francois Jacques three games without pay on Monday for an incident in Sunday's game against Columbus. Jacques was given a major for elbowing early in the third period of a 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets at Honda Center for delivering a hit to the head of Columbus forward R.J. Umberger after the visiting player released a shot on goal from the right wing.
"We have taken into account that Umberger suffered no significant injury on the play. We have also taken into consideration that Jacques has been suspended once before in his 166-game NHL career."
As a repeat offender, Jacques was penalized based on the number of games in the season rather than the number of days. He will forfeit $23,780.49 of his salary, which goes to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund and will not be eligible to return until January 15, when the Ducks take on Vancouver.
He forked over nearly $18,000 in salary for the original infraction.
Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Kings, who came into the contest struggling putting the puck into the net, had an offensive explosion against Washington on Monday, defeating the Capitals, 5-2. Kyle Clifford, Anze Kopitar, Jack Johnson, Jarret Stoll and Justin Williams all netted goals for the Kings, who averaged a league-worst 2.02 goals a contest coming in and tallied just twice in their previous three games.
"It was good to score and we got it from all of the lines. We had guys around the net tonight," Kings head coach Darryl Sutter said.
Tomas Vokoun stopped 23-of-27 shots before being pulled after the second period. Michal Neuvirth came on and made seven saves in the third period.
"We had a strong start, we scored the first goal," Capitals left winger Alex Ovechkin said. "After that we stopped playing."
Following a Capitals turnover, Dustin Brown found an open Kopitar in the slot and he tipped it home with 34 seconds left in opening period.
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) |
