Suddenly-slumping Senators to host rival Leafs

Hockey Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Ottawa Senators will try to get back in the win column tonight, when they host the Toronto Maple Leafs in a battle between Northeast Division foes at Scotiabank Place.

The Senators have 76 points and are one back of Buffalo for the Northeast Division lead. However, Ottawa has been dealt two straight 4-1 losses since the NHL has emerged from its Olympic break. The club had won 14 out of 16 heading into the hiatus.

Ottawa was dealt a loss by the visiting New York Rangers on Tuesday and then dropped Thursday's decision at Carolina. Manny Legace made 25 saves, helping the red-hot Hurricanes stretch their season-high win streak to seven games in the 4-1 victory.

Senators goaltender Pascal Leclaire gave up two goals on five shots in the first 6:23 of the game before being pulled. Brian Elliott made 14 saves the rest of the way for Ottawa.

"We needed a shake up, but we needed him to be better as well," said Ottawa head coach Cory Clouston of Leclaire.

The Senators have a superb 23-9-3 record as the host this year and had won seven straight on home ice prior to Tuesday's loss against the Rangers. Ottawa will begin a three-game road trip Tuesday in Edmonton.

Meanwhile, the Maple Leafs, who are last in the Eastern Conference, have lost four straight, including two in a row since returning from the Olympic break.

Toronto was able to record a point its last time out, dropping a 3-2 shootout decision Thursday night in Boston. Miroslav Satan opened the scoring in the first period and recorded the lone goal in the shootout for the Bruins.

Satan beat Maple Leafs goaltender Jean-Sebastien Giguere on a nifty deke to the backhand in the third round of the extra segment. Boston netminder Tim Thomas, meanwhile, turned away the trio of Phil Kessel, Jamie Lundmark and Tyler Bozak, who tied the game six minutes into the third period, during the shootout.

Viktor Stalberg had the other goal for Toronto, while Giguere stopped 29 shots.

"I couldn't ask for more from the guys. We had some great chances," said Leafs coach Ron Wilson. " I tip my hat to Tim Thomas, he made some huge saves for them,"

Toronto is just 2-8-3 in its last 13 games overall and has lost seven straight on the road. The Leafs have a dismal 8-18-7 record as the guest this season.

These teams have split four previous matchups this season, with the Senators posting a 3-2 win on November 17 in the lone meeting held in Ottawa. Toronto has lost two straight, three of four and six of its last nine in Canada's capital city.

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.
