Doughty scores in final second as Kings down Jackets
Hockey Betting Lines
02/02/2012 -
Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Drew Doughty rammed home the game-winning
goal with two-tenths of a second remaining to send the Los Angeles Kings to a
3-2 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets at Staples Center.
After Blue Jackets' center Samuel Pahlsson was whistled for holding with 1:06
to play, the Kings went to work with the man-advantage, bombarding Jackets
goalie Curtis Sanford with shots.
Kings' defenseman Jack Johnson ripped a slap shot from the right point that
was kicked out by Sanford, but Doughty pounced on the rebound and ripped it
past Sanford from the slot just before the clock hit zero.
"It was a great job on our power play," Doughty said. "I've never scored many
goals to win it. "It's a good feeling. It's good to get this win right after
the break and before our long road trip."
Doughty also added an assist, while Justin Williams and Dustin Penner scored
for the Kings, who got 20 saves from Jonathan Quick en route to their second
straight win.
Derek Dorsett and Colton Gillies scored and Sanford made 30 saves in defeat
for the Blue Jackets, who have now lost six consecutive games.
Los Angeles opened the scoring with a power-play tally at 8:40 of the first
period after Williams took a nice feed from Doughty and snapped a wrist shot
high over the left shoulder of Sanford from the left circle.
Columbus drew even just 1:09 into the second period when Vinny Prospal threw
one in front right on the tape of Derick Brassard, who backhanded a weak shot
on net that was stopped by Quick, but Dorsett stuffed home the rebound.
The Kings took a 2-1 edge at 14:32 of the second period off a sloppy turnover
by Columbus at the defensive blue line.
R.J. Umberger held the puck in his own zone and looked to head up the ice on
the rush, but was pickpocketed by Penner at the blue line. Penner moved in
with speed and snapped one past Sanford to the short side.
The Jackets tied it at two at 4:52 of the third period when John Moore ripped
a shot from the right point that was kicked to the right corner by Quick.
Antoine Vermette chased down the puck and found Gillies, who ripped it home
from in front.
"This is hugely disappointing, we thought we were going into overtime with
at least one point," Sanford said. "They controlled the puck at the end, got
it on the guy's stick and he made the shot. This one is tough, it's happening
too many times this season."
Game Notes
Los Angeles leads the season series between the teams, 2-1...Columbus failed
to convert on three power play chances, while the Kings were an efficient 2-
for-3 with the man advantage...Doughty has 15 points in his last 19 games.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
