Shots Of Puck Jackets

Hockey Betting Lines

R.J. Umberger and Rick Nash scored, while Vinny Prospal added a pair of assists for the Blue Jackets, who have lost four of their last five contests. Steve Mason stopped 25-of-28 shots in defeat.

 

Columbus showed resiliency and came up with an answer just over two minutes later when Nash picked up a loose puck in the neutral zone and raced up the right wing into Lightning territory. He dished to Jeff Carter, who fired one that was stopped by Garon, but Nash picked up the rebound, brought it around the back of the net and stuffed it into the other side to make it 3-2.

 

The Lightning made it 2-0 at 18:12 of the first period when Stamkos controlled the puck in the left circle and sent a cross-ice pass to a wide open Brewer, who slapped it through traffic and past Mason from the right point.

 

The Blue Jackets answered at 5:43 of the second period on the power play when Umberger accepted a nice saucer pass from Prospal in front of the net, took it around behind and stuffed it into an open cage.

 

Prior to the game, Prospal was honored for reaching 1,000 games played in his career...Saturday marked the first meeting of the season between the teams...Lightning defenseman Matt Gilroy was scratched with a lower-body injury...Carter had his four-game goal scoring streak snapped...Tampa Bay failed on three power play opportunities, while the Blue Jackets went 1-for-5 with the man advantage...Columbus will face the St. Louis Blues on Sunday, while the Lightning will head west to tangle with the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday.

 

Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - David Legwand scored the winner in the shootout as the Nashville Predators took a 2-1 win over the St. Louis Blues. Patrik Berglund, the Blues' third shooter in the shootout, beat Pekka Rinne with a wrister, but the puck ricocheted sharply off the left post.

 

Martin Erat tallied and Rinne made 39 saves for the Predators, who have won five in a row.

 

The Predators got the first tally with 7:28 left in regulation. Mike Fisher fed Shea Weber from the left point. And then from the right circle, Weber quickly flipped a pass to Erat, who tipped it home from the crease.

 

Game Notes

 

St. Paul, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Frans Nielsen scored in the second round of the shootout, lifting the New York Islanders over the Minnesota Wild, 2-1. Andrew MacDonald scored in regulation for the Islanders, who snapped a four- game skid. Al Montoya made 20 saves.
