Datsyuk gets SO winner as Wings top Wild
Hockey Betting Lines
01/03/2009 -
St. Paul, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Pavel Datsyuk posted the lone shootout tally,
and the Detroit Red Wings rallied to top the Minnesota Wild, 3-2.
In the first round of the shootout, Datsyuk faked to his backhand, quickly
went to the forehand and lifted the puck over Wild goalie Josh Harding.
Minnesota's Brent Burns failed to gain a handle on the puck and didn't record
a shot on net in the second round, and Mikko Koivu's final backhand attempt
was stopped by Detroit's Chris Osgood, giving the Red Wings the victory.
Mikael Samuelsson and Johan Franzen recorded goals for the Red Wings, who have
won three straight and six of eight. Osgood made 33 saves in the win.
Owen Nolan and Antti Miettinen scored two goals just 16 seconds apart early in
the third period for the Wild, who have lost three of four and found out that
star forward Marian Gaborik will miss the next 10 weeks, with hip surgery
planned for Monday.
Harding made 35 saves in a hard-luck loss.
Detroit got the only goal of the first period. Zetterberg stole the puck in
his own zone and raced down the left side. He wrapped around the back of the
net and dished it to Samuelsson, who was able to one-time the puck past
Harding at 16:17.
After a scoreless second, Minnesota forged ahead with two goals in the first
minute of the third. Nolan tied the game on the backhand just 35 seconds into
the frame, and Miettinen's wrist shot beat Osgood at 51 seconds to make it
a 2-1 Wild advantage.
A slashing penalty on Harding with just over six minutes left turned into the
tying goal for Detroit. Franzen tallied the equalizer with 4:37 left in
regulation on assists from Nicklas Lidstrom and Brian Rafalski.
Harding made six saves in the extra session, while Osgood stopped two Wild
attempts, sending the game to a shootout.

Big Ten Conference odds
Teams that should be in: Michigan State, Indiana
Work left to do: Illinois, Purdue, Michigan, Iowa
Behind the big two, the pecking order might be in a bit of flux. Has Michigan State passed Indiana after handling the Hoosiers in East Lansing? Where is Illinois in that mix? What looked like a four-big league last week could be morphing into five -- and even six is not unthinkable at this point if everything breaks right.
Should be in:
Michigan State [21-8 (8-6), RPI: 20, SOS: 15] The Spartans made it four-for-four on the homestand, a gigantic accomplishment that leaves them in extremely good shape. MSU is only 1-6 on the road and is at Michigan and at Wisconsin to close things out, meaning the date with the Wolverines on Tuesday looms very, very large. Beating Texas early will hold up well, as will the rout of Bradley and the win over BYU, but will 8-8 be enough? It very well could be, as the computer numbers are good, but why chance it?
Indiana [18-9 (8-6), RPI: 24, SOS: 32] Hmm ... good thing the last two are at Northwestern and home to Penn State, because IU might want to get both to feel completely safe after dropping its third in the last four, fading after halftime at Michigan State. Who knew the best nonconference win would be over Southern Illinois, which is a gift that keeps on giving for the Hoosiers. The win over Wisconsin also looks good on the mantel.
Work left to do:
Illinois [21-9 (9-6), RPI: 31, SOS: 25] A good performance at Penn State leaves the Illini in pretty good shape. Can they go to Iowa and take care of business to really look on their way? That's a huge game, as there is a possible cluster of teams that will end at 9-7. Illinois beat Bradley, but has lost to Xavier. A 9-7 mark and a semifinals trip in Chicago could be enough with the computer profile hanging in there, but it would be better not to mess around, clinching at least a tie for third.
Purdue [18-10 (7-7), RPI: 47, SOS: 28] Couldn't get it done at Iowa, but did win at Northwestern to put 9-7 squarely in sight. Where does that leave the Boilermakers, though? Even if they beat Minnesota and Northwestern at home, that won't help the computer numbers. Nonconference wins over Virginia, DePaul and Oklahoma are solid, but not spectacular. The Boilers very well might need an upset in the B10 quarters to have a legit claim.
Michigan [19-10 (7-7), RPI: 55, SOS: 53] Well, Michigan did what it needed to do, winning at Minnesota to take control of its fate. The Wolverines have Michigan State and an already-wrapped-up-the-league Ohio State at home to close, so the chances are there. Win both and we can talk. There is no marquee win yet in the profile, and the Wolverines were splattered in several games against name opponents. A mediocre computer profile fueled by a lack of road wins isn't helping, either.
Iowa [16-12 (8-6), RPI: 80, SOS: 64] For the sake of being complete, we'll add Iowa, this season's Stanford. It's plausible that the Hawkeyes could get to 10-6 (at Penn State, vs. Illinois left), but where does that leave them after a gruesome nonconference performance where the best win was over ... Toledo? Iowa State? Cornell?? If they get to 10-6, we can start to look at what they need to do in the B10 tourney, although my gut sense is that they would need to make the final and have knocked off Ohio State or Wisconsin on the way to have any real claim.
