Game Acquires Rangers Against Macdonald

Hockey Betting Lines

Johan Franzen provided the lone offense for the Red Wings, who have lost two in a row to end a five-game road trip.

 

Joey MacDonald made his first start since March 30 and absorbed the loss despite giving up just two goals on 22 shots.

 

Detroit peppered Smith with 11 shots in the third, but had no answer. MacDonald was pulled for an extra skater with over a minute remaining and Hanzal put the clincher into an empty net inside of 30 seconds to play.

 

Detroit won three of four games in the season series...Hanzal posted his first multi-goal effort since October 23...Whitney picked up a pair of assists...The Coyotes travel to Dallas on Tuesday...The Wings, who finished 2-2-1 on their sojourn, return home to open up a six-game homestand by welcoming Edmonton on Wednesday.

 

"We really wanted these two points. It's really important for our team and I really wanted it," said Hiller.

 

Miikka Kiprusoff was denied his 300th career win despite making 31 saves.

 

Iginla split Anaheim's defenseman while receiving a pass at the Ducks' blue line and raced in on a short breakaway, skating into the slot and sending a wrister past the stick side to knot the game at two at the 6:15 mark.

 

Each team was then awarded a late power play in the third period, but neither converted.

 

Iginla and Tanguay also failed to end the game when they came down the ice on a 2-on-1 rush, but Iginla missed the net as he lifted the puck too high over the crossbar.

 

Then nearly two minutes later, Sheldon Brookbank ripped a one-timer from the right point that was redirected into the top-left corner by Belesky to put the Ducks ahead 2-0 after one.

American Idol Betting Odds: Season 6  

The online gambling websites are in the process of deciphering each American Idol contestant and his or her chances of winning Season 6 to come up with the early American Idol betting lines.

Tim Dalton of MySportsbook.com has been locked away in a soundproof room coming up with all the latest tallies, we are told. "American Idol has become one of the most significant betting events of the year," claims Jack Black of MySportsbook.com.  "Last year, millions were bet during the season across the globe, not just in America.

It's tough early on since we really do not have a glimpse as to how well each of these individuals will perform solo on a week-to-week basis.  It's like Week 1 of the NFL.  Pre-season means nada!

We do know the 24 finalists however.

Sanjaya Malakar is the young man whose sister failed to make it into the Top 24.  He's very low key but - unless he totally flubs - will probably win over the young girlie vote for a few weeks anyway.  He's too young to go all the way, according to Payton O'Brien. 

Brandon Rogers - Who?

Phil Stacy is the military guy who missed his daughter's birth because of the Memphis audition.  He should go a good distance.

Chris Sligh - He's got the humor and in many ways he's the Anti-American Idol much like last year's winner Taylor Hicks was.  And this is why he'll probably get pretty far in this competition.  He's chubby, white with a big curly afro....but more importantly, a great voice!  People love "real", not "real cute" to go all the way. 

"Blake Lewis should go far because of his uniqueness and looks.  He's the boy next store with a twist - he beat boxes.  But on top of this, he's a great singer, and I adore him," Payton O'Brien relayed.

A talented beat-boxer Blake Lewis was a hit during the group sing in Hollywood but Simon explained that this is a singing contest just before he told him he was “in.”

Paul Kim has caught our own roving reporter, Jenny Woo's eyes. 

"I love the fact that there is a Korean American on the show and he is bound to get more Asians tuning into the show," Woo said from her Miami Beach estate.  "There has never been a major presence of Asian-Americans on American Idol in the past.  He's a hottie with a nice voice so that should help to take him far.  Expect heavy betting action from the Asian community."

Sundance Head - He's not perfect, but he's got the personality that will take him through a few weeks, plus he's got the lineage (son of Roy Head - whose 1965 single, "Treat Her Right," hit No. 5 in the charts) 

And the others:

Rudy Cardinas
AJ Tabaldo - the 5th time is the charm
Nicolas Pedro
Chris Richardson
Jared Cotter

The girls

"Melinda Doolittle has one of the best voices," says MySportsbook.com Reporter and an acclaimed dancer in her own right, Destiney Lewis.  "It is great to see a back up singer step out like she has.  The girl needs to gain more confidence but that can also be a positive.  I think she will go far."

Alena Alexander - Those tears (she never seems to stop bawling) should get her far.

"Single mom Lakisha Jones I suspect will be a pretty big favorite entering Week 1 of the competition," says Destiny Williams.  Jones is an excellent singer and down to earth.  "She'll have a wide appeal," echoed O'Brien.

Nicole Trellis - Seems to exert confidence.

Amy Krebs - a powerful singer.
