Revamped Coyotes host Ducks in Pacific clash

Hockey Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Phoenix Coyotes will try to record consecutive wins when they welcome the Anaheim Ducks for tonight's Pacific Division battle at Jobing.com Arena.

The Coyotes were dealt their third straight loss when they emerged from the Olympic break with Tuesday's setback against St. Louis. However, Phoenix rebounded two days later with a home victory over Colorado.

Thursday's win helped Phoenix move ahead of Los Angeles in the Western Conference standings. The Coyotes are currently fourth in the West with 81 points, just one more than the Kings.

Wojtek Wolski was the hero for Phoenix in his first game with the Coyotes, scoring with 23.7 seconds left in regulation to beat his former Colorado club in a 3-1 final. Wolski was dealt from the Avalanche to the Coyotes on Wednesday for forwards Peter Mueller and Kevin Porter.

Phoenix veteran Shane Doan found Wolski set up at the left circle for a one- timer to further the storyline and break a 1-1 tie. Radim Vrbata added an empty-net goal to account for the final margin.

"It was great, we got a lot of chances and I think it will only get better with each game," said Wolski of working with his new teammates. We're all excited about playing with each other."

Fellow newcomer Lee Stempniak, brought in from Toronto on an exceptionally busy day for the Coyotes at the deadline, scored in his first game as well. Goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov came up with 23 saves for the win.

The Coyotes are playing the fourth test of a five-game homestand tonight. Phoenix, which is 23-10-2 as the host this year, will complete the residency Wednesday against Vancouver.

Anaheim has played just one game since the Olympic break and it was also against Colorado, which handed the Ducks a close regulation loss on Wednesday. Chris Stewart had a goal and two assists to lift the Avs to the 4-3 decision in Anaheim.

Teemu Selanne and Jason Blake each had a goal and assist for the Ducks, who are currently outside of the playoff picture with 67 points.

Scott Niedermayer also scored in the loss, while Jonas Hiller made 21 saves.

The Ducks have a poor 11-17-5 record as the guest this year. Following tonight, however, Anaheim will play its next seven games on home ice.

Tonight marks the sixth and final regular season meeting between Anaheim and the Coyotes in 2009-10. Phoenix has won three of the five prior matchups and posted a 4-0 home victory the last times the clubs met on December 23.

The Ducks still have six wins in the last 10 overall meetings between the teams, but they have dropped three straight and five of their last eight in Glendale.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
