Hurricanes trade defenseman Ward to DucksHockey Betting Lines03/03/2010 - Raleigh, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hoping to force their way into the Western Conference playoff picture, the Anaheim Ducks have acquired defenseman Aaron Ward from the Carolina Hurricanes. In exchange for the 6-foot-2 defenseman, the Hurricanes receive goaltender Justin Pogge and a conditional fourth-round pick in either the 2010 or 2011 draft. The trade for the Ducks comes just one day after they dealt defenseman Nick Boynton to Chicago for future considerations. Anaheim entered play on Wednesday three points out of a playoff spot. The 37-year-old Ward was in his second stint with the Hurricanes and had one goal, 10 assists and a minus-17 rating in 60 games this year. He has 44 goals and 105 assists in 822 career games and is a three-time Stanley Cup winner, having captured championships with the 1997 and '98 Red Wings as well as the 2006 Hurricanes. "Aaron Ward brings valuable experience and is a proven winner with three Stanley Cup championships," said Ducks executive vice president and general manager Bob Murray. "We are pleased to bring him on board." Ward has also skated with the Rangers and Bruins in his career, which began when he was drafted fifth overall by the Winnipeg Jets in 1991. The Hurricanes, 14th overall in the Eastern Conference with 57 points, are currently without No. 1 goaltender Cam Ward due to a back injury. Ward hasn't played since February 3 and Carolina has been using Manny Legace and rookie Justin Peters in net. Pogge, a 23-year-old who was playing with San Antonio of the American Hockey League, owns just seven games of NHL experience as he went 1-4-1 in seven games for Toronto last year with a 4.35 goals-against average. He was traded by the Maple Leafs to the Ducks in October for a conditional 2011 draft pick.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday. Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine. El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year. MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds. Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle. New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele. Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
