03/06/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Phoenix Coyotes will try to record consecutive wins when they welcome the Anaheim Ducks for tonight's Pacific Division battle at Jobing.com Arena.
The Coyotes were dealt their third straight loss when they emerged from the Olympic break with Tuesday's setback against St. Louis. However, Phoenix rebounded two days later with a home victory over Colorado.
Thursday's win helped Phoenix move ahead of Los Angeles in the Western Conference standings. The Coyotes are currently fourth in the West with 81 points, just one more than the Kings.
Wojtek Wolski was the hero for Phoenix in his first game with the Coyotes, scoring with 23.7 seconds left in regulation to beat his former Colorado club in a 3-1 final. Wolski was dealt from the Avalanche to the Coyotes on Wednesday for forwards Peter Mueller and Kevin Porter.
Phoenix veteran Shane Doan found Wolski set up at the left circle for a one- timer to further the storyline and break a 1-1 tie. Radim Vrbata added an empty-net goal to account for the final margin.
"It was great, we got a lot of chances and I think it will only get better with each game," said Wolski of working with his new teammates. We're all excited about playing with each other."
Fellow newcomer Lee Stempniak, brought in from Toronto on an exceptionally busy day for the Coyotes at the deadline, scored in his first game as well. Goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov came up with 23 saves for the win.
The Coyotes are playing the fourth test of a five-game homestand tonight. Phoenix, which is 23-10-2 as the host this year, will complete the residency Wednesday against Vancouver.
Anaheim has played just one game since the Olympic break and it was also against Colorado, which handed the Ducks a close regulation loss on Wednesday. Chris Stewart had a goal and two assists to lift the Avs to the 4-3 decision in Anaheim.
Teemu Selanne and Jason Blake each had a goal and assist for the Ducks, who are currently outside of the playoff picture with 67 points.
Scott Niedermayer also scored in the loss, while Jonas Hiller made 21 saves.
The Ducks have a poor 11-17-5 record as the guest this year. Following tonight, however, Anaheim will play its next seven games on home ice.
Tonight marks the sixth and final regular season meeting between Anaheim and the Coyotes in 2009-10. Phoenix has won three of the five prior matchups and posted a 4-0 home victory the last times the clubs met on December 23.
The Ducks still have six wins in the last 10 overall meetings between the teams, but they have dropped three straight and five of their last eight in Glendale.

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses
The 2008 Kentucky Derby has announced a $1-million bonus for this weekend’s 134th ‘Run for the Roses’ and MySportsbook.com is doing the same.
Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details.
According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800).
Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund.
''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.''
Meanwhile, the Derby favorite – Curlin – is going against the odds this year. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.
Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby.
''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.''
Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year.
Asmussen dismissed suggestions that Curlin's lack of racing experience could keep him from the winner's circle.
”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?''
The Kentucky Derby is at 4:04 p.m., ET Saturday.
