Hockey Betting Lines

"[The Canadiens] took the game in the second (period), but (Vokoun) made some great saves and kept it 1-0," the Washington defenseman said. Montreal outshot the Capitals 10-3 during the middle stanza.

 

The Caps moved to 9-14-3 on the road this year and now return home, where they are 18-6-1 on the season and have won eight of nine.

 

New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Artem Anisimov had a goal and two assists to lead the New York Rangers to a 5-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. Marian Gaborik had a goal and an assist while Michael Del Zotto, Brandon Dubinsky and Ruslan Fedotenko all scored for the Rangers, who have won four of five.

 

Brayden Schenn and Wayne Simmonds both scored for the Flyers, who have dropped their past two games. Ilya Bryzgalov allowed four goals on 37 shots in the loss.

 

Newark, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ilya Kovalchuk had a goal and two assists on Sunday, leading the Devils to a 5-2 win over the Penguins. Kovalchuk now has 10 points in his last four games -- all New Jersey victories. Zach Parise had a goal and an assist on Sunday while Anton Volchenkov and Dainius Zubrus also found the back of the net. Martin Brodeur made 28 saves and added an assist on David Clarkson's empty netter.

 

Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tim Thomas stopped 35 shots to lift the Boston Bruins to a 4-1 win over the Washington Capitals at Verizon Center. Brad Marchand and Rich Peverley each had a goal and an assist while Milan Lucic and Tyler Seguin also scored for the Bruins, who had lost three of four coming in. Patrice Bergeron had two assists in the contest.

 

Boston scored just after the midway mark of the first as Peverley sent a pass from the high slot to the front of the net where Lucic was all alone and he waited out Vokoun to the left before lifting the puck in.

 

The second period passed without a goal as Thomas made 10 stops and Vokoun turned aside nine, but the Bruins made it a 3-0 game just 6:38 into the third.

 

Bergeron brought the puck into the Washington end from the right side and at the point fired a pass over to the left point. Marchand held it there and dished it down to the front where Seguin redirected it past Vokoun.

 

However, that was as close as it got and Peverley scored into the empty net with under a minute to play to seal the win.

 

Montreal, QC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Carey Price stopped 23 shots for his third shutout of the season as the Montreal Canadiens took a 3-0 decision over the Winnipeg Jets. Tomas Plekanec had a goal and an assist while Max Pacioretty and Alexei Emelin both scored for the Canadiens, who snapped a three-game slide.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value

If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture.  Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).

For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot.  The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.

TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the  drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.

"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,'  it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."

"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.

Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash.  Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
