Hockey Betting Lines

02/07/2012 - Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alexander Edler scored in the sixth round of a shootout Tuesday night, lifting the Vancouver Canucks to a 4-3 win over the Nashville Predators.

Edler challenged Pekka Rinne from the left side, skating deep into the zone and flipping a shot past his right pad. At the other end, Colin Wilson was able to slide a shot under Roberto Luongo from the right, but the puck drifted wide on the far side of the net.

The Canucks beat the Predators for the second time in three games this season, though Tuesday's game was the first time the teams met in Nashville since last year's Western Conference semifinals, which Vancouver won in six games.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

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
