Red Wings edge Canucks in shootout
Hockey Betting Lines
02/03/2012 - Vancouver, BC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Pavel Datsyuk scored the winner in the shootout as the Detroit Red Wings edged the Vancouver Canucks, 4-3, in a battle of the top two teams in the Western Conference.
Datsyuk faked to the forehand and buried a wrister on Detroit's first chance. After Mason Raymond lost the puck on Vancouver's second opportunity, Jiri Hudler snapped a shot into the net for the win.
Danny Cleary had a goal and an assist while Drew Miller and Hudler also scored for the Red Wings, who have won their first two games after the All-Star break. Jimmy Howard stopped 22 shots in the win.
"We dig ourselves too many holes when we are on the road," said Detroit head coach Mike Babcock. "We can't do that all the time and expect to keep coming back."
Alexandre Burrows, Ryan Kesler and Raymond all scored for the Canucks, who had a three-game winning streak stopped. Roberto Luongo made 40 saves in the loss.
Detroit leads the NHL and the Western Conference with 71 points, while Vancouver is four points back of the top spot.
Cleary made a slick move at the right circle to get away from the defender and move to the slot where he snapped a wrister past Luongo 5:27 in.
Vancouver, though, got it back with 3:47 to play in the first on a shot from down low by Kesler, his 15th goal of the year.
With 6:09 to play in the second, the Red Wings took a 2-1 lead as Valtteri Filppula sent a pass from the right to the left where Hudler buried his chance.
Vancouver tied the game halfway through the third on Burrows' 19th of the season.
Miller gave the Wings the lead back two minutes later as his shot from the left side during a scrum in front snuck in, but the Canucks tied the game with 4:24 to play when a shot by Raymond from the right circle found its way into the net.
"Obviously we didn't have a good first period, played a little better in the second," said Luongo. "We played good in the third and found a way to tie it up, get a point at least."

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
