Anderson, Avs shut out Oilers for third time this seasonHockey Betting Lines02/07/2010 - Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Craig Anderson needed to make only 20 stops to record his sixth shutout of the season, and the Colorado Avalanche notched a 3-0 win over the Edmonton Oilers at the Pepsi Center. Out of Anderson's six shutouts this season, three have come against the Oilers. Wojtek Wolski, Ryan Wilson and Brandon Yip each scored for the Avalanche, who had lost four of their last five following a six-game win streak. Jeff Deslauriers was able to stop 39-of-41 shots in defeat for the Oilers, who have lost their last nine on the road. Ethan Moreau had a team-high five shots in defeat. Deslauriers survived a 14-shot attack in the first period unscathed, but the Avs finally broke the scoreless tie in the second. After a Colorado shot hit the goalpost, Wolski put the team in front moments later. Matt Duchene skated down toward the right circle and left the puck for Wolski, whose hard shot caromed off Deslauriers and trickled just past the goal-line at 9:33. Anderson was able to stop four shots in the first and eight in the second, as the Avs held a 1-0 lead going into the third period. Edmonton had a brief 5-on-3 during two overlapping penalties late in the third period but couldn't convert, and Wilson essentially put the game away with his third goal of the season at 17:06 for Colorado. Yip's empty-net tally came with 30 seconds left to account for the final margin.

Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset. The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown. The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns. Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
