New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The National Hockey League suspended Anaheim Ducks forward Jean-Francois Jacques three games without pay on Monday for an incident in Sunday's game against Columbus. Jacques was given a major for elbowing early in the third period of a 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets at Honda Center for delivering a hit to the head of Columbus forward R.J. Umberger after the visiting player released a shot on goal from the right wing.

 

"It is important to note that while Umberger is taking a wrist shot, the position of his head does not change significantly either simultaneous with, or just prior to, contact. The onus, therefore, is on Jacques not to make the head the principal point of contact.

 

The 26-year-old Montreal native was suspended for the remainder of the preseason and five regular-season games in September for leaving the bench during a legal line change to engage in a fight with Canucks forward Mike Duco during an exhibition contest.

 

Anaheim received some good news late Monday, as defenseman Francois Beauchemin will not be disciplined following a hearing for a blind-side hit to Columbus forward Jeff Carter which resulted in a separated shoulder for the 27-year-old former Flyer.

 

Jonathan Bernier made 20 saves for the win.

 

Marcus Johansson scored twice for Washington, which has lost two straight since winning four consecutive contests.

 

Johansson recorded the first tally for the Capitals just 1:34 into the first period, but the Kings netted five straight goals to seize control.

 

Clifford tied the game midway through the first period with a backhander in the crease following a shot by Trent Hunter from the left circle. It was the first Kings goal in 71:41 and first regulation goal in just over 170 minutes of ice time.

 

Following a Capitals turnover, Dustin Brown found an open Kopitar in the slot and he tipped it home with 34 seconds left in opening period.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
