Blackhawks try to keep scoring touch in home test vs. Sens
Hockey Betting Lines
12/10/2008 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Coming off their best offensive performance of the season,
the Chicago Blackhawks welcome the Ottawa Senators to town for tonight's clash
at the United Center.
Currently second in the Central Division, the Blackhawks posted a 7-1 victory
over visiting Phoenix on Sunday. It was their highest goal output since
netting seven goals at Columbus on February 13 of last season.
Andrew Ladd had a career-high four points off a goal and three assists, while
Ottawa native Ben Eager scored twice. Jonathan Toews, named the NHL's second
star of the week on Monday, and Dave Bolland each had a goal and an assist,
while Dustin Byfuglien and Patrick Sharp also scored.
Toews had four goals and two assists in three games last week to earn his
honor.
Making his fifth straight start, Cristobal Huet made 20 saves in helping
Chicago win for the second time in three games and improve to 8-1-4 at home.
Huet has been manning the pipes full time with Nikolai Khabibulin nursing a
groin injury.
Khabibulin could return tonight, though, and is 5-8-0 with two ties and a 3.31
goals against average in 16 starts versus Ottawa. Huet is 4-6-1 with a 3.54
GAA in 11 games against the Senators.
Chicago will be without rookie Kris Versteeg tonight due to an automatic one-
game suspension he earned after drawing an instigator penalty with two seconds
left in Sunday's game. Versteeg leads all rookies with 15 assists and is tied
for the freshman lead in points with 22.
Former Senator and current Blackhawk forward Martin Havlat will face his old
club for just the third time. He has one assist and zero goals against the
team that picked him 26th overall in the 1999 draft. Havlat went on to post
235 points (105 goals, 130 assists) in 298 games with Ottawa before being
dealt to Chicago in a six-player deal in the summer of 2006.
Ottawa had a two-game winning streak end with Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to
Florida. After posting his second-career hat trick in the Sens previous game,
Jason Spezza scored in the loss, as did Chris Kelly and Dany Heatley.
Ottawa's trio of Spezza, Daniel Alfredsson and Heatley have now accounted for
12 goals and 11 assists in the last six games. Spezza has five goals in his
last three games.
Alex Auld turned aside 36 shots, but allowed the winning goal with 9.1 ticks
left in overtime. Martin Gerber, who hasn't played since a loss to Carolina on
November 7, will start tonight after Auld was in net for 11 straight. Gerber
is 2-0-1 with a tie and 2.40 GAA in four starts versus Chicago.
Ottawa plays the first of back-to-back road games tonight and have lost six
straight (0-4-2) as the visiting team to fall to 3-5-2 on the road this year.
The Blackhawks have won two straight and four of their last five versus the
Senators. That includes two wins in a row in the Windy City.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
Here are the football odds as seen at MySportsbook.com and subject to change after February 10, 2007 if not locked in prior to that date.
