Sharks make it official with Niemi
Hockey Betting Lines
09/02/2010 -
San Jose, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Jose Sharks officially added former
Chicago netminder Antti Niemi on Thursday, signing him to a one-year deal.
While financial terms were undisclosed, earlier reports indicated it is for $2
million.
The cash-strapped Stanley Cup champion Blackhawks let Niemi walk rather than
pay an arbitrator's decision to award the Finn a reported $2.75 million
contract for the 2010-11 season.
In an unusual aftermath, the 27-year-old Niemi became an unrestricted free
agent less than three months after leading the 'Hawks to their first Stanley
Cup since 1961.
He split time during the regular season with Cristobal Huet and was 26-7-4
with a 2.25 goals-against average, seven shutouts and a .912 save percentage
-- then went 16-6 with a 2.63 GAA and two shutouts in the playoffs.
The Sharks, meanwhile, needed insurance against the loss of veteran Evgeni
Nabokov, who signed to play in Russia. San Jose signed fellow Finn Antero
Niittymaki to a two-year contract in July and holdover Thomas Greiss is also
in the mix.

Big 12 Conference betting odds
Work left to do: Texas Tech, Oklahoma State, Kansas State
 Texas joins Texas A&M and Kansas as locks after getting league win No. 11. Texas Tech greatly helped its own hopes and crippled OK State's with the two-point win Saturday. Is K-State the last reasonable hopeful? Could be an elimination match in Stillwater on Tuesday, at least for the Cowboys.
Work left to do:
Texas Tech [18-11 (7-7), RPI: 44, SOS: 12] A critical two-point win over OK State leaves the Red Raiders with Baylor and at Iowa State left. Get both and the Red Raiders likely are good to go. Get one and there could be some interesting comparisons with a K-State team that could finish two or three games "ahead" of them in the standings but doesn't have any of the quality wins Texas Tech has. Not a lot in nonconference play (against Arkansas in Little Rock being the best win, by far) to lean on.
Oklahoma State [18-9 (5-8), RPI: 50, SOS: 35] Still without a road win, the Cowboys now need to win two on the road just to get to .500 in conference play. It's hard to recall a team (OK, other than Clemson) falling so precipitously from lock status to almost certainly out of the NCAAs at this point. There are wins to be had in the last three, including a very big home game against K-State on Tuesday, but this team is reeling. Can you tell the pressure to win is getting to them with the way the final possession played out at Texas Tech? There are some good nonconference performances to lean on, specifically beating Missouri State and Syracuse on neutral floors and Pitt in OK City, but if the Pokes don't right this very, very soon, that won't be enough.
Kansas State [20-9 (9-5), RPI: 56, SOS: 96] It pays to be in the Big 12 North. The nine league wins are Colorado (twice), Missouri (twice), Iowa State (twice), Baylor, Nebraska and (a good one against) Texas. That helps explain the middling computer profile. The win over USC is nice, but the nonconference leaves a lot to be desired. The game at OK State in Stillwater on Tuesday is huge, as it could KO the Cowboys and leave K-State with a home date against Oklahoma with which to work.
