02/11/2012 - San Jose, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Benn Ferriero's goal early in the third period proved to be the winner, as the San Jose Sharks kept the Chicago Blackhawks reeling with a 5-3 victory at HP Pavilion.
Justin Braun, Dan Boyle, Joe Thornton and Jamie McGinn also tallied goals for the Sharks, who snapped a two-game losing streak.
Antti Niemi stopped 30-of-33 shots for the win.
Marcus Kruger scored twice, while Bryan Bickell also lit the lamp for Chicago, which had its season-long losing streak reach seven games.
Corey Crawford allowed all five goals on 27 shots to take the loss.
San Jose held a 3-2 lead entering the third period, but Dave Bolland slid a pass from the left corner to the right circle through the legs of a Sharks defender that was one-timed home by Bickell to knot the game at three 2:15 into the final stanza.
Ferriero then put San Jose back on top at the 5:40 mark when he finished off an offensive flurry with a quick shot from the crease that snuck by Crawford.
McGinn gave the Sharks a little insurance with 5:56 left in regulation while on the power play by grabbing a pass to the right of the net before moving the puck from his backhand to his forehand and lifting a shot over the goaltender's right shoulder.
A pair of power-play goals by Braun and Boyle in the first period sent the Sharks into the first intermission with a 2-0 lead.
The Blackhawks, though, battled back to tie the game when Kruger was able to clean up a pair of rebounds early in the second period.
But San Jose took a 3-2 advantage into the end of the second thanks to a fortuitous deflection.
After the Sharks' Patrick Marleau failed to get the handle on a cross-ice pass in a 2-on-1 rush, Thornton attempted a centering pass from the right of the net that deflected off the stick of San Jose's Dylan Olsen and slid through the legs of Crawford.

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
