NHL NEWS AND NOTES
What Bettors Need To Know: Blackhawks at Flyers
By Cover Staff


Don’t Call It A Comeback

Even though the Flyers trail this series 3-2 and are one loss away from elimination, it’s safe to say they have the Blackhawks right where they want them.

Philadelphia has relished the role of underdog in the playoffs, bouncing back from certain death against the Boston Bruins in the second round and answering back with two wins at home after trailing Chicago 2-0 in the final.

“If any team gets it, this team gets it, because we’ve been here so many times,” head coach Peter Laviolette told the Toronto Star.

“To have our backs against the wall, we’ll be comfortable (Wednesday). I have no question that our team will respond in a manner in which it should so that we can be successful.”

The Flyers have been tremendous at home this postseason, going 8-1 inside the Wachovia Center including winning Games 3 and 4 against the Blackhawks. Philadelphia is scoring 3.70 goals per game at home while giving up an average of just two goals as host this postseason.

They’ve edged Chicago 9-6 in the two games in this series and haven’t lost to the Blackhawks inside the Wachovia Center in 10 games dating back to 1996.

"That's a stat that I don't look at," Chicago defenseman Brian Campbell told USA Today. "After you said that, it pretty much went out the ears and I'll move forward."

Taking Advantage

The Chicago power play finally showed up in the Stanley Cup Final, netting two goals in the Blackhawks’ 7-4 win in Game 5 Sunday. Chicago had scored just one power-play goal in the previous four games, improving to 3-for-13 on the man advantage in the final.

"We just settled down and played our game and that's a big factor, just even with the even strength, we came out ready to go, controlling the puck a little better,” forward Dustin Byfuglien told NHL.com. “That led into the power play with guys just settling down, confidence and just playing. That's something we needed to do. That's something we did very well tonight."

The Blackhawks special teams ranked just 16th in the NHL during the regular season, which was poor considering they were among the most offensively explosive attacks in the league. For the playoffs, Chicago’s power play is operating at 22.7 percent efficiency – going 17-for-75 with the man advantage. Philadelphia has had the best penalty kill this postseason, shutting down almost 86 percent of opponents’ power plays.

"There were some questions about our power play going in," Patrick Sharp told the media. "We've had lots of stretches where we were 0-for-6, 0-for-8 and managed to come through during the season, so we weren't too worried about it. We got five guys on both units who like to make plays, can move the puck and we scored a couple big goals today."

Musical Chairs

Peter Laviolette has a secret. And he’s not telling.

There is a cloud of mystery surrounding Philadelphia’s starting goaltender for Game 6 Wednesday. After starter Michael Leighton was pulled after allowing three goals on 13 shots in Game 5, there are some fans who would rather see Brian Boucher get the call.

"I don't like to put things out before I talk to my team and talk to my players," Laviolette told the CBC. "I want to make sure I do it at the right time and when I want to do it. I reserve the right to say when and where."

Leighton, who was brilliant against the Bruins and the Montreal Canadiens in the two rounds heading into the final has been shaky at times. He’s boasting a 4.01 goals against average and a .871 save percentage against the Blackhawks and has been pulled in two games this series.

Boucher didn’t fare much better when he stepped between the pipes in Game 1 or Game 5. He allowed one goal on 12 shots in relief in the opening contest of the final then was peppered for three goals on 14 shots in Sunday’s loss.

"Whatever is best for the team and whatever is going to give us the best chance to win one hockey game," Laviolette followed up.

ICE PICKS

Wednesday's Best NHL Bet

Chicago Blackhawks at Philadelphia Flyers (-120, 5.5)

It appears the cat is out of the bag.

After Philadelphia head coach Peter Laviolette kept fans and the media in the dark about the team's starting goalie for Game 6, the answer may have inadvertently leaked thanks to the world of social networking.

Following a Tuesday press conference, the Flyers’ official Twitter page reported that Michael Leighton would start Game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals against the Chicago Blackhawks.

Not long after, the tweet was replaced with this quote from Laviolette, which strongly suggests Leighton will start between the pipes: "Our goaltender has the best numbers in the playoffs; I don't think I have to announce it."

But does the decision really matter? Leighton has been pulled in two games of this series due to ineffectiveness and backup netminder Brian Boucher has been giving up goals at a high clip as well.

The goalies on both sides of this series have played second fiddle to the offenses. While the shots on goal totals for each team haven’t been off the charts, the scoring percentage has with an average of 8.00 shots per game finding the net.

The only contest in the finals that didn’t go over the posted total was Game 2. Five of the seven graded totals at Philadelphia this postseason have gone over and pucks should be flying again Wednesday.

Pick: Over

MLB NEWS AND NOTES
Wednesday's Streaking And Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking

Josh Johnson, Florida Marlins (6-2, 2.10 ERA)

The Marlins ace has been nearly untouchable in recent outings, allowing only two runs over his last five trips to the mound. Johnson has posted three shutout efforts in that span and is coming off a one-run, seven-hit showing against the Milwaukee Brewers last Thursday. The last time he faced the Phillies, Johnson was out-pitched by Philadelphia ace Roy Halladay, who had to throw a perfect game to beat Florida’s right hander. These two studs face off again Wednesday.

Johan Santana, New York Mets (4-2, 2.76 ERA)

The Mets veteran arm has been stellar in recent starts and hasn’t allowed a run in the past 15 innings of work. But those shutout efforts haven’t equaled victories for Santana, who was dealt a no decision in each of his last two games. Going back to his last five starts, the tricky southpaw has given up only three earned runs over 36.2 innings, posting 22 strikeouts but just one win in that stretch.

Slumping

Zach Duke, Pittsburgh Pirates (3-6, 5.43 ERA)

The Bucs' lefty hasn’t won a start since May 18 and has been roughed up since, serving three home runs in his most recent outing – a 6-4 loss to the San Francisco Giants. Duke has allowed 13 runs on 22 hits in his last two trips to the mound and might not snap this slump against the Nationals Wednesday. Duke is 1-1 with a 5.11 ERA in four career starts against Washington.

Kyle Davies, Kansas City Royals (4-4, 5.49 ERA)

Davies lasted just four innings in his last start, allowing six runs on eight hits while walking two batters. The outing before that, the Royals righty was knocked around for five runs on seven hits in seven innings of work. He is 4-5 with a 4.80 ERA in nine career starts versus Minnesota but will be taking the mound at brand new Target Field for the first time. Reply Reply With Quote

HOT LINES

Wednesday's Best MLB Bets

Seattle Mariners at Texas Rangers (-180, 9.5)

It’s no secret the Mariners have the most pathetic offense in the American League. Seattle has plated 14 fewer runs that the second-worst AL lineup and has hit a total of 33 home runs – the smallest mark in the majors.

One offseason acquisition the M’s didn’t think they would have to worry about from a hitting standpoint was second baseman Chone Figgins. But Figgy has greatly underachieved this season, hitting .220 going into this series, so manager Don Wakamatsu dropped him to the nine-hole in the order after he hit in the No. 2 spot for the first 56 games.

Wakamatsu said the move wasn’t pointed at the infielder but Figgins was not happy about it after Monday’s game.

"Obviously, it's me," Figgins said. "I've been getting on base. I've been hitting the ball pretty good. Obviously, it has something to do with me. I think I've about earned enough respect as a player…I should stay where I was hitting."

Texas second baseman Ian Kinsler has been in a bit of funk himself, registering only three hits in his last 22 at-bats with no home runs or RBIs. But Rangers’ manager Ron Washington said he will stick with Kinsler batting third in the order.

"As I said earlier, I'm not bouncing him around," Washington said. "Once he gets it going, he's dangerous. It just looks like, to me, that his rhythm is off. That's all. It happens.”

Five of the seven games between these AL West foes this season have played to the under, including Monday’s 4-2 Seattle victory. The wind will be blowing in from right field again in Arlington which should help limit the runs scored in this affair.

Pick: Under


Florida Marlins at Philadelphia Phillies (-155, 6.5)

While Stephen Strasburg was the talk of Tuesday, another player made his major league debut.

Lauded Marlins rookie Mike Stanton hit seventh and started in right field in Tuesday's game against the Phillies. Stanton is the team’s most heralded phenom since Miguel Cabrera came up through the farm system in 2003.

At 20 years of age, Stanton pounded out 21 homers and 52 RBIs in 52 games with a .311 average at the Double-A level. For his minor league career, the 6-foot-5, 235-pound right-hander has averaged a home run every 11.7 at-bats.

"Michael is a guy with power who is starting to develop into a hitter," said Florida minor league hitting coordinator John Mallee.

Stanton is just young enough not to be intimidated by Roy Halladay's dominance on the mound. Look for the Fish to exact some revenge on Halladay after being humbled by a perfect game the last time they faced him.
