Sharks part ways with longtime goaltender Nabokov
Hockey Betting Lines
06/22/2010 -
San Jose, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Jose Sharks announced on Tuesday
that the club will not offer a contract to veteran netminder Evgeni Nabokov
once the free-agent signing period begins on July 1.
Nabokov, who is an unrestricted free agent, finished last season with a
44-16-10 record, 2.43 goals-against average and three shutouts for the Pacific
Division winners.
The 34-year-old, who was a ninth-round pick of the Sharks in the 1994 draft,
finishes his San Jose career with a 293-178-37 record and 29 ties, a 2.39 GAA
and 50 shutouts.
"We would like to thank 'Nabby' for the time he has spent in San Jose," said
Sharks general manager Doug Wilson. "'Nabby' has been a big part of this team
for the past 10 seasons and played an important role in our successes. This
decision boils down to a dedication of dollars in a salary cap system and
under this system, teams can't keep everyone."
Though a capable and often-times dominant netminder, Nabokov bore the brunt of
San Jose's repeated playoff flame-outs in recent seasons. Last season, San
Jose managed to reach the conference finals for the first time since 2004, but
were wiped out in a four-game sweep by eventual Cup champion Chicago.
Nabokov's departure is the second move the franchise has undergone this
offseason to revamp its roster and image. Last week, 20-year NHL veteran
defenseman Rob Blake announced his retirement.
Wilson acknowledged that the money saved by not offering Nabokov a contract
will go towards potentially re-signing San Jose's other unrestricted free
agents such as UFA forwards Patrick Marleau, Scott Nichol and Manny Malhotra,
as well as UFA defenseman Niclas Wallin.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
