Hockey Betting Lines

02/22/2012 - Glendale, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mikkel Boedker scored the winner in the final round of the shootout as the Phoenix Coyotes took a 5-4 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday.

Dustin Brown had tied the shootout in the second round when he buried his shot past Mike Smith, but Boedker got it back when he faked to the backhand and shoved it in.

Jack Johnson then missed the net on his shot to give the Coyotes the win.

Radim Vrbata had two goals and an assist while Shane Doan also scored two for the Coyotes, who have won three straight and eight of nine. Smith made 25 saves in the win.

"This one felt really good tonight," said Doan. "We're on kind of a roll here, but to rally the way we did tonight, it's nice."

Drew Doughty, Justin Williams, Brown and Andrei Loktionov all scored for the Kings, who have lost five of their last six games. Jonathan Quick also stopped 25 shots.

The Kings held a 3-0 lead after 14:44, but the Coyotes' power play, which went 3-for-7 in the game, scored twice in the first 5:26 of the second period to get the team back into the game.

The first goal came just 50 seconds in as Martin Hanzal sent a pass on the rush from the left side to the right where Vrbata tapped it in.

Less than five minutes later, it was a 3-2 game on Doan's one-timer off a bouncing pass from Hanzal at the right circle.

The Kings got one back at the 11:51 mark of the second on the power play thanks to Williams' 12th of the season, but Phoenix made it a one-goal game going into the third when Doan cleaned up a rebound at the left side with 2:53 left in the second.

A match penalty to Kyle Clifford gave the Coyotes a five-minute power play with 6:13 to play and they tied the game with 2:27 left as Vrbata's heavy wrister from the low left circle snuck underneath the crossbar.

Doughty got the Kings on the board 6:18 into the game when his big shot from the high slot beat Smith cleanly.

With 7:28 to play in the first Loktionov's turnaround shot from the right side snuck past Smith and it was a 3-0 game 2:12 later when a slap shot from Willie Mitchell at the left point was tipped in by Brown.

Game Notes

Hanzal had three assists in the game...The Kings play in Colorado on Wednesday...Phoenix hits the road for games in Calgary and Edmonton on Thursday and Saturday...Both teams won three times in the season series...Los Angeles was 1-for-3 on the power play.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
