Armadillo: Thursday's six-pack

-- Duke 91, Virginia Tech 86 OT-- Refs pulled Dukies thru in this one, even though game was in Blacksburg.

-- Davidson 60, Rhode Island 59-- A-14 tourney is going to be tremendous.

-- Richmond 67, VCU 63, 2OT-- Rams led late in OT after being down 16 in second half, but gave up tying layup and lost in second OT.

-- Northwestern 72, Indiana 65-- Bad loss for Tom Crean.

-- Baylor 79, Iowa State 70-- Scott Drew doesn't enough credit for what he does.

-- Missouri State 80, Bradley 77, 3OT-- Two lousy teams played a great game.

**********

Armadillo: Thursday's List of 13: Looking thru some college hoop stuff......

13) Big West-- Cal-Davis has a two-game lead over Irvine. Long Beach lost its last four games, is in middle of the pack. Riverside is a much-improved team.

12) Mountain West-- Down year in this league; San Diego State is far and away the best team, but they struggle to score. Not sure Boise or Colorado State will get into the NCAAs if they don't win the conference tournament.

11) MAC-- Central Michigan is 11-4, three other teams are 10-5. This conference tournament is always chaotic in Cleveland; this year will be no different.

10) MVC-- Wichita and Northern Iowa, Northern Iowa and Wichita. Anyone else winning conference tourney would be huge upset. Teams play Saturday in Wichita.

9) AAC-- SMU and Tulsa are tied at top, but Cincinnati's defense is a good as aoyone. UConn is damn good #6 seed, but league drops way off after that.

8) Atlantic 14-- Four teams are 11-4; two others are 9-6. VCU, Davidson look good for NCAAs; everyone else needs to win conference tourney.

Needs to be pointed out here how many conferences have wide-open races; other than Kentucky, Wisconsin and maybe Gonzaga, every team in the country has glaring flaws-- aren't many deep teams.

7) WCC-- Gonzaga is to this league what UNLV was to the Big West 25 years ago, in Tark the Shark's heydey. Bulldogs have a 4-game lead, but has this league prepared the Zags for the rigors of March Madness?

6) Pac-12-- Arizona is best team, but if Stanley Johnson has a rough night, who picks up the slack? Could be a two-bid league, with Wildcats and Utah.

5) SEC-- Three teams behind Kentucky all lost their last game, two of them at home. Florida has had a dismal season. Luckily spring football practice starts soon.

4) Big 14-- Purdue has been a pleasant surprise, so has Maryland, but Purdue also lost to Gardner-Webb and North Florida. Four teams are locks; Indiana/Illinois are bubblicious-- Purdue and Iowa are close to being in.

3) ACC-- Five teams are locks, but North Carolina is playing lousy and Duke damn near got beat at Virginia Tech last night. Virginia needs to get healthy, Louisville has no point guard and Notre Dame is soft on defense.

2) Big East-- Not sure what to make of this league. Villanova has a 3-game lead, but this is a league where everyone else has at least eight losses. Butler is a pleasant surprise. DePaul has improved, but they're still in sixth place.

1) Big X-- League is just too hard; Home teams are 50-26, 4th-best home win %age in country. Texas is in 8th place but is #21 nationally in KenPom rankings.

Blue Jackets' G Sergei Bobrovsky, out Thursday

Bobrovsky is on injured reserve with a groin injury. He will not return Thursday against the Canadiens.

Senators' G Craig Anderson, questionable Thursday

Anderson is on injured reserve due to a hand injury and is questionable to return Thursday against the Kings.

Visiting teams triumph on the ice Wednesday

Granted, it was a light schedule in the NHL Wednesday evening, but road teams proved a profitable venture winning all three games on the board.

The Calgary Flames, +105 dogs, defeated the New Jersey Devils 3-1, the Pittsburgh Penguins (+105) finally solved the Washington Capitals this season winning 4-3 and the Ottawa Senators (+165) again rode the stellar goaltending of Andrew Hammond to a 3-0 victory over the Anaheim Ducks.

Season to date, road teams are now 409-383-57-60 straight up. There are nine games on the board around the league Thursday.

Sabres awful offense an under bettors' dream

In the Buffalo Sabres last 10 games they have an over/under record of 1-9 thanks to their poor offense. The Sabres are averaging a mere 1.7 goals in those 10 games and have only scored multiple goal game four times.

Buffalo will welcome the Vancouver Canucks Thursday with a goal total set at 5.0.

NHL roundup: Pens edge Caps, avoid season sweep

WASHINGTON -- Center Evgeni Malkin has three assists and center Sidney Crosby added his 20th goal of the season to lead the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 4-3 win over the Washington Capitals on Wednesday night at the Verizon Center.

The Penguins avoided a series sweep with the victory and moved three points ahead of the Capitals in the Metropolitan Division standings. They are one point behind the second-place New York Rangers, who have two games in hand on the Penguins and three on the Capitals.

Penguins goaltender Marc-Andre Fluery stopped 21 of 24 shots to improve to 28-13-6. Capitals netminder Braden Holtby allowed four goals on 26 shots to fall to 29-14-9.

Right winger Patric Hornqvist, center Brandon Sutter and left winger Chris Kunitz joined Crosby with goals for the Penguins, who have won three straight games since losing to the Capitals 3-1 in Pittsburgh on Feb. 17.

Defenseman John Carlson, right winger Troy Brouwer and left winger Alex Ovechkin scored goals for the Capitals, who have lost back-to-back games in regulation for the first time since Jan. 16-17.

Flames 3, Devils 1

NEWARK, N.J. -- Left winger Curtis Glencross and center Sean Monahan each scored a goal in a span of 48 seconds over two periods and goaltender Karri Ramo made 26 saves in goal, leading Calgary to victory over New Jersey at the Prudential Center.

The victory enabled the Flames to move past idle Minnesota into eighth place in the Western Conference standings and improve to 1-1 on their current season-long seven-game road trip.

Flames defenseman T.J. Brodie scored an empty-net goal and left winger Mike Cammalleri scored for New Jersey. Goaltender Corey Schneider made 23 saves in vain for the Devils.

Ducks 3, Senators 0

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Goalie Andrew Hammond led Ottawa to a win over Anaheim at Honda Center, moving to 3-0-0 on the season and marking the first time his team won three straight games since October.

Hammond earned his first career shutout, making 25 saves while his Ducks goalie John Gibson stopped 31 of 33 shots.

Left winger Erik Condra scored for Ottawa, as did centers Mika Zibanejad and Kyle Turris.

Devils cash yet another ticket for Under bettors

The New Jersey Devils cashed in another Under bet with their 3-1 loss to the Calgary Flames Wednesday night. That makes it three-straight Unders and seven Unders in their last eight games overall.

The Devils are now 20-36 Over/Under on the season - good enough for the second-best Under bet in the league. Only the Carolina Hurricanes, who have an O/U record of 17-34, have been better this season.

New Jersey is off Thursday but is back at it Friday with the Boston Bruins coming to town. The teams have met twice this season with the O/U split 1-1.

Zepp will start as Flyers visit Maple Leafs Thursday

Rob Zepp will make his fourth-straight start for the Philadelphia Flyers when they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs Thursday evening.

The 33-year-old has appeared in nine games, eight of which have been starts, so far this season and has a record of 5-2, a goals against average of 2.80 and a .893 save percentage on the season.

In his recent three-game starting stretch, Zepp has backstopped the Flyers to wins over the Nashville Predators (3-2) and Washington Capitals (3-2) before losing to the Carolina Hurricanes 4-1 Tuesday.

Kings put streak on line versus Senators

The Los Angeles Kings are the hottest team in hockey and put their eight-game winning streak on the line with the Ottawa Senators in town Thursday evening.

The Kings have climbed right back into the playoff picture courtesy of their stellar play in the month of February. Goaltender Jonathan Quick has allowed just two goals in the previous three wins, including a shutout of the Detroit Red Wings in his last start.

The Senators have a mini three-game streak of their own off the heels of a 3-0 shutout of the Anaheim Ducks Wednesday. Los Angeles is presently -225 on the moneyline and oddsmakers have a total of 5.5 tabbed for the game.

Nash to return to lineup for Rangers

Rick Nash will return to the New York Rangers lineup tonight versus the Arizona Coyotes after missing one game with a neck spasms.

The Rangers, currently -255 favorites, could use the return of Nash's scoring touch after scoring just one goal against Calgary.

Nash is second in the NHL with 37 goals this season, just two behind league leader Alexander Ovechkin.
