Canucks keep Wild reelingHockey Betting Lines02/09/2012 - St. Paul, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Henrik Sedin played two days after taking a puck off his ankle and scored a goal, and the Vancouver Canucks rolled to a 5-2 win over the Minnesota Wild on Thursday night. Daniel Sedin had a goal and an assist while Maxim Lapierre, Manny Malhotra and Ryan Kesler also scored for the Canucks, who are unbeaten in regulation in their last eight games (6-0-2). Vancouver stopped a streak of five straight overtime games. Henrik Sedin was cleared to play his 553rd straight game despite concerns over his ankle, which was injured while he blocked a puck in Tuesday's win over Nashville. Cory Schneider had 22 saves for the Canucks in Thursday's victory, which knocked the Wild to 5-14-5 in their last 24 games since mid-December. They are 0-3 against Vancouver during the stretch. Dany Heatley and Devin Setoguchi scored for Minnesota and Niklas Backstrom gave up four goals on 19 shots. Captain Mikko Koivu, who missed eight straight games with a left shoulder injury, returned and was a plus-1 in nearly 23 minutes of ice time. Heatley gave the Wild their only lead 13 seconds into the game when he slipped in front from the right side and beat Schneider. But Daniel Sedin's power play goal tied it and Lapierre gave Vancouver the lead for good with 42 seconds left in the first period. Both goals came on rebounds in the slot. Henrik Sedin's goal came 50 seconds into the middle period on a tic-tac-toe play started by his brother on the left side. Byron Bitz took that pass and fed it to Henrik low on the right side for an easy goal. Malhotra made it 4-1 on a deflection in the third period and Setoguchi rattled one in off the post on a power play with 4:02 remaining. Kesler's goal was into an empty net. Game Notes The Wild started a four-game homestand that also includes visits from Columbus, Anaheim and Winnipeg...Vancouver was 1-for-3 on the power play and the Wild went 1-for-4.

2007 NFL Football Betting Preview“You play to win the game!” Those are the words of notoriously intense head coach Herman Edwards. Unfortunately, from a bettors’ perspective, most coaches don’t feel that way about the NFL preseason. August is a time to evaluate young players, finalize the depth chart and pray your star players stay healthy. The trick to making money during the exhibition schedule is identifying coaches – like Edwards – who can’t stand losing even when there's nothing on the line. The New York Jets betting won 15 of 21 preseason games and went 14-7 against the spread (ATS) during Edwards’s five-year tenure with the club. In his first season as the Kansas City Chiefs field boss, the team improved from 0-4 to 2-2. Identifying win-a-holics like Edwards is a good start if you plan betting the preseason – even though most say you shouldn’t ... but what the hell do they know anyway? Here’s a brief rundown of two teams that have a habit of winning during the second-stringers’ season, and another club that has a good chance of exceeding this year. Playing in the media hub of North America can be stressful but the press can’t write anything negative about the way Tom Coughlin’s boys play in the preseason. The Giants won and covered all four games last summer, improving their record to 7-1 both straight up (SU) and against the spread over the last two years. Coughlin has shown he’s not afraid to give his starters more time in the second preseason game than most of his colleagues, no doubt one of the reasons his team has been so dominant. Bettors can count on America’s team early on. The Cowboys are 14-6 both SU and ATS since 2002 in warm-up contests. Former coach Bill Parcells, the coach of the team the last four years, has an intimidating, in-your-face presence – surely a reason Dallas has had so much early success. The Big Tuna won’t be strolling the sidelines with looks of disgust, but new coach Wade Phillips will be anxious to make a good first impression for owner Jerry Jones. Dallas plays the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos before things get serious. They then face the Houston Texans in their third contest (the game starters see most game time) and finish off with the Minnesota Vikings. Expect a Dallas team able to walk away with another 3-1 preseason record. This team scored a league-worst 12 offensive touchdowns last season, so the rookies and veterans each have something to prove. There’s a bounty of first-unit jobs up for grabs and plenty of bodies competing for those slots. First-time head coach Lane Kiffin will be eager to impress an owner who employs the philosophy, “Just win, baby!” The 32-year-old Kiffin has to command respect from a locker room full of players older than him. All of these factors should lead to purpose in preseason. Don’t forget: before playing like a team that belonged in NFL Europe, Oakland went 4-1 (both SU and ATS) in exhibition games.
