02/07/2012 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Martin Brodeur extended his NHL record with the 117th shutout of his career, as the New Jersey Devils made a first period goal stand up in a 1-0 win over the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.
David Clarkson tallied the only goal for the Devils, who have now won five straight.
The Rangers appeared to tie the game with 3.5 seconds left, but Marian Gaborik crashed into Brodeur and was called for goalie interference, negating Artem Anisimov's potential equalizer.
Henrik Lundqvist was again marvelous in net, stopping 21-of-22 shots, but saw a personal four-game winning streak come to an end. New York, meanwhile, lost for only the second time in its last six games overall.
Brodeur, though, was the story, as the four-time Vezina Trophy winner stopped 30 shots, including 15 in the final period, to secure his first shutout since blanking the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 25 of last season.
It looked as if he would be denied the shutout late. With the Rangers net empty and time ticking down, Ryan Callahan wristed a shot from the left circle that Brodeur pushed aside. Gaborik then went into Brodeur, knocking him backwards into the net, while Anisimov buried the putback, only to see it waved off by a penalty.
The Rangers had their chances in the third period and outshot the Devils, 15-1. New York was also 0-for-3 on the power play and is scoreless in its last 17 tries with the extra skater.
The Devils took advantage of a Stu Bickel holding call and cashed in on the power play 8:14 into the opening period. From behind the net Zach Parise found a streaking Clarkson, who beat Lundqvist glove side for his 21st goal of the season.
Clarkson now has five goals in his last five games, while Parise extended his point streak to six games (5g, 3a).
Petr Sykora almost made it a two-goal game late in the first period, but his rocket from the top of the right circle hit the crossbar with time winding down.
The Rangers had a pair of terrific chances in the second period. Shortly into the period Brandon Prust missed the net, while with time ticking down in the stanza Brodeur used the left glove to turn aside a terrific opportunity from Carl Hagelin.
Game Notes
Lundqvist has allowed one goal or fewer in 11 of his last 19 games, and has held opponents to two or fewer goals in 27 games this season...The Devils have outscored the opposition 21-12 during their five game win streak.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship
(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.
One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.
Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title.
