Canucks visit Avs in clash between Northwest's top two teams
Hockey Betting Lines
03/09/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Of all the games the Vancouver Canucks have played on their
NHL-record 14-game road trip, tonight's contest with the Colorado Avalanche
could be the most important.
Northwest Division-leading Vancouver will try to extend its two-point edge
over second-place Colorado in the standings when the clubs clash Tuesday night
at Pepsi Center.
The Canucks are 7-5-0 thus far on their swing, including wins in three of four
since the Olympic break. Vancouver's 4-2 victory over Nashville gave the
franchise its 40th win in 65 games, the fastest the club has ever reached that
mark in team history.
Still, Vancouver leads Colorado by just two points but has outscored the
Avalanche 16-7 in winning three of the four meetings this year. That includes
an 8-2 triumph when the team's last met at Pepsi Center on November 14. Henrik
Sedin notched his first career hat trick in that win, the Canucks' third in
their last four trips to Colorado.
Sedin was one of four goal scorers in Sunday's win over Nashville, as his
empty-net tally capped a three-goal third period to complete the rally. Mikael
Samuelsson netted his career-high 24th goal of the game and Jannik Hansen had
the game-winner with 5:42 left in the third.
It marked the NHL-leading ninth time the Canucks have won after trailing at
the beginning of the third period.
Samuelsson, who scored 23 goals with Detroit in 2005-06, has scored in three
straight and five of his last six games, while teammate Ryan Kesler had an
assist to run his point streak to nine games (5 goals, 5 assists).
"We got some lucky breaks [Sunday]," said Samuelsson. "You know, sometimes
those breaks go the other way, but tonight they went our way and we were able
to get the win."
Roberto Luongo made 33 stops for Vancouver, which ends its epic swing
Wednesday in Phoenix before returning home on Saturday for the first time
since January 27.
Colorado plays the middle portion of a three-game homestand tonight and won
for the sixth time in nine games with a 7-3 triumph over St. Louis on
Saturday. Chris Stewart led the Avs' highest single-game goal output this
season with his first career hat trick, capping the feat on a penalty shot.
"It's always big when you get your first NHL hat trick," said Stewart, who
also had an assist and was named the NHL's First Star of the Week on Monday
after totaling five goals and four assists in four games. "But more
importantly we got the win. It was a big two points we nabbed [Saturday]."
Colorado, which had lost three of four coming in, has won six of seven and 10
of its last 13 as the host.
Milan Hejduk, who had missed the last 17 games due to knee and back ailments,
scored a pair of goals and T.J. Galiardi had a goal and two assists. Craig
Anderson had 39 saves in the win.
Defenseman Ruslan Salei left the contest with a torso injury in the second
period, putting his status for tonight in doubt. Fellow blueliner Kyle
Cumiskey is expected to play tonight for the first time since February 12,
however. He had missed the last five games due to a head injury.
