Gambling911.com is paying close attention to the San Jose Sharks betting odds and specifically their odds to win the 2009 Stanley Cup Championship. San Jose has 5 points more at press time than their nearest competition, the Boston Bruins.
At SBG Global, the San Jose Sharks odds to win the 2009 Stanley Cup were being offered up at +250 or one can bet $100 to win $250. This was as of December 20, 2008 and Gambling911.com was recommending locking this future bet in now as we are forecasting odds to be slashed further as the season progresses. This team, like the Boston Celtics in the NBA, just look like obvious champions from the get go.
As for the December 20 New York Rangers vs. San Jose Sharks betting odds, the SBG Global opening line here was Sharks - 210 , Total 5.5 Under -140
The San Jose Sharks will try and bounce back from a rare loss as they host the New York Rangers on Saturday night. The Sharks are 16-0-2 at home this season, outscoring opponents 68-37. They will get a serious test on Saturday from a Rangers team that is leading the Atlantic Division. The Rangers have owned the Sharks of late at San Jose, winning three of the last four games. SBG Global reports that early Hockey betting has the public taking Sharks at Home.
New York comes into Saturday's game having won three straight while the Sharks have lost two in a row including a humiliating 6-0 loss at Detroit on Thursday. "We can use the excuse that we had three games in four nights, but that's just an excuse," Sharks forward Ryane Clowe said. Goaltender Evgeni Nabokov had a rare off game giving up all six goals. He was 12-1-2 in his previous 15 games.
The Rangers will try and sweep their west coast road trip. "Getting two wins is huge. It's everything we could have hoped for coming out here. It's going to be a tough test on Saturday. They have a good team," Chris Drury said. "We're just finding ways to win. Not every game is going to be lopsided. You're not always going to have a two- or three-goal lead. You just have to gut it out and win." Goaltenders Henrik Lundqvist and Stephen Valiquette have stopped 87 of the last 92 shots they have faced. New York has scored at least three goals in five consecutive games.
Here are the Hockey betting stats for Saturday's game. The Rangers are 4-1 in their last 5 vs. the Pacific. The Rangers are 4-1 in their last 5 overall. The Rangers are 5-2 in their last 7 road games. The Rangers are 6-14 in their last 20 vs. the Western Conference. The Rangers are 5-0-1 in the last 6 meetings between the two teams.
