Caps hope to stay in first as they battle Jets
Hockey Betting Lines
02/09/2012 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The first-place Washington Capitals will try to post
consecutive wins for the first time in over three weeks when they host the
Winnipeg Jets tonight at Verizon Center.
The Capitals posted a big win Tuesday against visiting Florida, as the 4-0
victory allowed Washington to vault one point ahead of the Panthers for first
place in the Southeast Division. Even though the Caps are leading the
Southeast, the club would like to go on a run since it hasn't posted back-to-
back victories since a three-game run from Jan. 11-15.
Washington used Alex Ovechkin's first points since serving a three-game
suspension in late January to notch the win over Florida. Ovechkin scored
twice to give him 22 goals on the season and Tomas Vokoun made 42 saves for
his fourth shutout of the season and 48th of his career.
Mathieu Perreault and Jason Chimera also scored for the Capitals, who are
3-3-2 in their last eight games. Perreault scored just 13 seconds into the
game and Ovechkin's first tally made it 2-0 before the end of the opening
period.
"We got two quick goals on them and they had to play a different game," said
Caps head coach Dale Hunter. "It ended up being the advantage for us."
Tonight's tilt marks the close of a three-game homestand for Washington, which
is 19-7-1 in D.C. this year compared to a 9-14-3 mark on the road. After this
evening, the Caps will play five of their next six away from the Verizon
Center.
The Jets enter tonight just four points behind Washington for first place in
the Southeast and Winnipeg is also five back of a playoff spot in the Eastern
Conference.
Winnipeg ended a two-game slide and won for the third time in five games with
Tuesday's 2-1 regulation win over visiting Toronto. Bryan Little scored the
eventual game-winning goal for the Jets midway through the second period and
Winnipeg held on for the close victory at MTS Centre.
Chris Thorburn also lit the lamp for the Jets, while Ondrej Pavelec needed to
make just 17 saves for the win.
The game also marked the return of Jets forward Evander Kane, who missed the
previous seven games with a concussion. Kane leads Winnipeg with 18 goals this
year, but he failed to register a shot on goal in nearly 14 minutes of ice
time against the Leafs.
Jets defenseman Zach Bogosian left Tuesday's game briefly with a wrist injury
before returning and is expected to play tonight.
Like the Capitals, Winnipeg has done most of its damage at home this year,
boasting a 16-8-2 mark at the MTS Centre and a 9-16-4 record on the road. The
Jets will visit Pittsburgh on Saturday before returning to Winnipeg to face
the New York Islanders on Tuesday.
The Jets are 1-1-1 against Washington this year after they won the final three
meetings of last year's season series while they were still known as the
Atlanta Thrashers. The Jets/Thrashers franchise has lost 10 of its last 11
games in D.C.

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.

Chiefs' Treen Green out for Sunday's game
How long Trent Green will remain sidelined is unknown. Coach Herm Edwards said Monday he will miss a second straight start Sunday when the Chiefs host the San Francisco 49ers.
A two-time Pro Bowler, Green was going into a feet-first hook slide when he was knocked unconscious by a thunderous, head-snapping hit from Cincinnati's Robert Geathers.
Oddsmakers at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com currently have the Chiefs listed as 7-point favorites versus the 49ers.
The 49ers got beat by Philadelphia 38-24 as a 6.5-point underdog last week. The combined score went OVER the posted over/under total (42.5).
Alex Smith completed 27-of-46 passes for 293 yards with a touchdown. Michael Robinson rushed for 29 yards and a pair of touchdowns on five carries.
The Chiefs lost 9-6 to Denver last week as an 11-point underdog. The combined score was well UNDER the posted over/under total (38).
Larry Johnson rushed for 126 yards on 27 carries. Damon Huard completed 17-of-23 passes for 133 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions.
