Detroit Leaves Season Of Calgary

Hockey Betting Lines

"It's a typical game for us where we start out good then mistakes kill us," said Columbus head coach Scott Arniel. "Instead of us making the plays it was them making the plays. We created chances, but they capitalized on theirs and we didn't."

 

Columbus will close December with two of three games on home ice before beginning the new year on a four-game road trip. The Blue Jackets are 6-10-2 on home ice compared to a 3-12-2 mark as the guest.

 

Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Nashville Predators captain Shea Weber has been diagnosed with a concussion. The standout defenseman was injured last Friday at Dallas. The team posted on its Twitter account Tuesday that Weber "will be evaluated on a daily basis with no timetable on his return."

 

Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former Detroit Red Wing forward Johnny Wilson has died. He was 82. Wilson was a four-time Stanley Cup champion with Detroit in the 1950's. He had 161 goals and 171 assists in 688 NHL games with the Red Wings, Blackhawks, Maple Leafs and Rangers.

 

He is the uncle of current Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Ron Wilson.

 

He was not feeling well enough to practice on either Monday or Tuesday, and following Tuesday's practice the decision was made to place Liles on IR according to TSN.

 

St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The St. Louis Blues activated forward B.J. Crombeen from injured reserve on Tuesday, paving the way for his first action this season. Crombeen totaled seven goals and 14 points with 154 penalty minutes in 80 games a season ago for St. Louis, but has missed all 35 contests after fracturing his left shoulder in the Blues' final preseason game.

 

The 24-year-old did not record a point in 24 appearances this year.

 

He then scored in the first round of the shootout, while Miikka Kiprusoff held steady in net to secure Calgary's fourth consecutive victory. Kiprusoff made 27 saves in regulation.

 

Steve Mason stopped 25 shots, but the Blue Jackets could only muster a second- period tally from Derick Brassard and lost for the sixth consecutive time.

 

However, Iginla evened the game 3:06 into the third. He was trying to control the puck in front of the crease and put a weak backhander on net, but Mason left enough space between his pads for the puck to get through.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.

Bet on NFL Football

Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.

Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.

Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.

All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.

A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
