Bergenheim, Islanders double up Devils

Hockey Betting Lines

03/13/2010 - Uniondale, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sean Bergenheim scored a short-handed goal late in the third period as the New York Islanders took down the New Jersey Devils, 4-2 at Nassau Coliseum.

Freddy Meyer, Jon Sim and Mark Streit also scored for the Islanders, who ended their four-game losing streak. Dwayne Roloson stopped 38 shots for the win.

Mike Mottau and Ilya Kovalchuk each found the net for the Devils, who had won two straight coming in. Former Islander netminder Yann Danis filled in for the resting Martin Brodeur and allowed four goals on 29 shots in defeat.

After Isles defenseman Dylan Reese was assessed a double-minor for high sticking at 9:15 in the final period, Blake Comeau started a 2-on-1 break, finding Bergenheim wide open in front for the score at 11:33, extending the Isles margin to 4-2.

The goal was reviewed as the net appeared to come off its hinges slightly, but the call stood.

The Devils had a 5-on-3 advantage for almost a minute shortly after the goal, but the Islanders and Roloson were able to stand a furious New Jersey attack.

Danis was pulled with 1:37 left, but the extra skater didn't help the Devils trim their deficit.

Mottau put the Devils on the scoreboard first at 2:52 into the game, as he simply threw the puck on net from the right boards and sailed between a screened Roloson's legs.

The Islanders tied the game on a 3-on-2 break as Josh Bailey dished to Tim Jackman, who lifted a wrister that bounced off of Danis and was tipped in by Meyer with 2:37 left in the opening period.

In the second, Richard Park drove the neutral zone and was sandwiched between two Devils defenders as the puck trickled back to Sim, who blasted it past Danis at 11:59 to give the Isles the 2-1 lead.

Just 50 seconds later, the Islanders added to the lead on the power play when Frans Nielsen fed Streit at the left point, for a slapshot that was deflected by a Devil and trickled past Danis.

But the Devils bounced back 1:41 into the third, when Dean McAmmond left a drop pass for Kovalchuk, who uncorked a slap shot from the right boards for his 36th goal of the year.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
