Ducks try to crown Kings once again

Hockey Betting Lines

02/18/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Anaheim Ducks go for a home-and-home sweep of the Los Angeles Kings when the area foes conclude their weekend series tonight at the Honda Center.

The teams needed an extended shootout to decide a winner on Saturday. Corey Perry scored the game-winner in the fifth round to lift the Ducks to a hard- earned 3-2 decision at the Staples Center.

Teemu Selanne had a goal and an assist in regulation and also lit the lamp during the shootout to help Anaheim to its second straight win. The victory put the division-leading Ducks five points in front of second-place San Jose in the Pacific standings.

Selanne's tally was his 35th of the season, which is tied with Tampa Bay's Martin St. Louis for second in the NHL right now.

Jean-Sebastien Giguere made 30 saves for Anaheim over the first 65 minutes, then stopped four of five Los Angeles skaters during the deciding phase.

Kings rookie Anze Kopitar sent the game into overtime when he beat Giguere with 5:14 remaining in the third period. The 19-year-old also set up a goal by teammate Alexander Frolov late in the first period.

The loss was the second in a row and 14th in the last 17 games for the Kings, whose 48 points are the fewest in the Western Conference. Los Angeles is also a dismal 8-19-2 on the road in 2006-07.

Anaheim has now won four of the five encounters between the Southern California rivals this season and is 8-1-0 in its last nine overall meetings with Los Angeles.

The Kings did record a victory in their last visit to the Honda Center, however, a 3-2 decision on December 3.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
