Stars shoot for rare win in Buffalo
Hockey Betting Lines
03/10/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - After losing its first three games after the Winter
Olympics, Dallas is coming off a victory that could very well turn its luck
around. Now all it has to do is pick up its first victory at Buffalo in over
12 years.
The Stars shoot for that rare victory tonight at HSBC Arena versus the Sabres,
who are aiming to win three in a row overall for the first time in over two
months.
Dallas was outscored 17-5 over its post-Olympic slide and was facing the
highest-scoring team in the league on Monday in Washington. Things didn't look
good when the Stars found themselves down 2-0 after two periods and outshot
42-16.
However, the Stars scored three times in the third frame, and though they
allowed the game-tying goal late in the third they still escaped with a 4-3
shootout win over the Capitals.
Brad Richards and Trevor Daley scored on the power play early in the third
before James Neal gave Dallas its first lead in the frame. Though Marty Turco
surrendered the game-tying goal to Alex Ovechkin with 3:16 left in the third,
he ended with a career-high 49 saves and stopped four-of-five skaters in the
shootout.
Richards and Loui Eriksson scored in the shootout, with Eriksson getting the
game-winner in the fifth round.
"I don't care if I see one shot cause it's all about the win", said Turco. "We
made some great plays tonight to have a chance in the third period and the
guys came through, especially on the power play. This was a big win for us and
now we can use it to turn things around."
Dallas, which won for the third time in its last four road games and ends a
three-game swing tonight, come into this game five points back of a playoff
spot in the Western Conference.
If the Stars want to close that gap, they will need to earn their first
victory in western New York since October 7, 1997. They have four losses and a
tie in four trips there since.
The Stars have also lost four straight overall to the Sabres, including a 5-4
shootout setback in Dallas last season. Turco made 31 saves for Dallas, which
hasn't beaten Buffalo since March 31, 2003.
Ryan Miller posted 21 saves in that victory and he has guided the Sabres to
consecutive overtime victories. That has Buffalo in position to win three in a
row for the first time since a six-game burst from December 27-January 8.
Miller is 2-1-0 with a 1.64 goals-against average in three starts since
leading the U.S. to a silver medal in the Winter Olympics. He made 27 saves in
a 3-2 win over Philadelphia on Friday, then stopped 35 shots two days later in
a 2-1 triumph versus the New York Rangers.
Adam Mair scored in regulation and Patrick Kaleta had the game-winner 2:22
into OT, upping his career-high goal total to nine. The victory snapped an
eight-game road losing streak (0-6-2) and was the club's second straight since
a 1-6-2 stretch.
"It was a good game," Kaleta said. "I thought we skated hard and had some
desperation."
The Sabres are tied with the Senators for first place in the Northeast
Division thanks to their recent struggles.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
