Bruins snap 10-game skid, blank CanadiensHockey Betting Lines02/07/2010 - Montreal, QC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tuukka Rask posted 36 saves for his third shutout of the season and Boston broke a 10-game losing streak, one game short of the franchise record, with a 3-0 win over Montreal at the Bell Centre. Boston, which hadn't won a game since a 2-1 shootout decision in San Jose on January 14, was 0-6-4 in its previous 10 games and was just one more loss away from breaking a franchise record that was set from December 3, 1924 - January 5, 1925. "I thought we played some good hockey today," said Rask. "You try to be there and frustrate the other team. I especially try to not let any weak shots in. They had some good chances in the second, but we defended well and I was able to make some saves." Marco Sturm scored twice while Adam McQuaid also notched a goal for the Bruins, who got a pair of assists from Patrice Bergeron. Jaroslav Halak stopped 24 shots for the Canadiens, who had won their previous three games. "We had a slow start in the first period and they came up strong," said Halak. "They were skating much better than us to get the lead which changed the game. We were better in the second but we couldn't solve their goalie." Boston took a 1-0 lead with 2:28 to play in the first as McQuaid's slap shot from the high slot hit off the stick of Ryan White down low and got past Halak. In the closing moments of the first period, the Bruins made it a 2-0 game as Sturm pounced on a loose puck in the slot and wristed it home for his 17th goal of the season with just 3.2 ticks left on the clock. Rask, who stopped 10 shots in the first period, was sharp in the second as he turned aside 15 shots in the frame to keep the Habs off the board. Boston gave itself an extra goal halfway through the third as Sturm's simple wrister from the slot hit off the stick of Josh Gorges and went into the net. Game Notes Montreal hosts Washington on Wednesday...Boston plays at Buffalo on Tuesday...Montreal had won all three games against Boston this season...Rask has four shutouts in his career.

Football Betting LinesThe 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite. Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense. Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively. A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey. Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season. Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back. Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick. And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
