Detroit edges Anaheim in SO, extends home win streak

Hockey Betting Lines

02/10/2012 - Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Todd Bertuzzi supplied the decisive goal in the third round of the shootout, as the Detroit Red Wings edged the Anaheim Ducks, 2-1, to push their franchise-record home winning streak to 19 games.

Following an exciting overtime, Bertuzzi skated in on Jonas Hiller very slowly and beat the Anaheim goaltender with a backhander. Joey MacDonald then denied Bobby Ryan to assure the extra point for NHL-leading Detroit, which hasn't lost at Joe Louis Arena since November 3 against Calgary.

The Red Wings' current string of home victories is the longest in the NHL since the Philadelphia Flyers tied the league record by winning 20 in a row during the 1975-76 season. The mark was first set by the 1929-30 Boston Bruins.

MacDonald made 29 saves for the Red Wings, who pace the NHL with 76 points.

Hiller stopped 23 shots for Anaheim, which has lost eight straight at Detroit.

The Ducks had a great opportunity to snap their skid in overtime, but defenseman Cam Fowler hit the post on a breakaway as the teams skated 3-on-3. Detroit countered with a rush the other way and it led to Corey Perry taking a tripping penalty with 54 seconds remaining. The Red Wings wound up with a two- man advantage, but couldn't convert.

Anaheim and Detroit traded goals in the first period.

Ducks enforcer George Parros opened the scoring when he redirected Rod Pelley's shot with his right skate at 16:17. It was his first goal since December 1, 2010.

Justin Abdelkader got his stick on Jakub Kindl's shot from the blueline, tying the game at 18:42.

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
