Terriers shock RedHawks to win men's national hockey title
Chockey Betting Lines
04/11/2009 -
Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Colby Cohen tallied with 8:13 remaining in
the first overtime as Boston University rallied from a late two-goal deficit
to defeat Miami-Ohio, 4-3, in the NCAA men's hockey national championship at
Verizon Center.
Cohen used a turn-around shot from the left circle, which deflected
off RedHawks' skater Kevin Roeder and dropped behind a stunned Cody Reichard
to end the contest.
Zach Cohen, Chris Connolly and Nick Bonino also tallied for the Terriers
(35-6-4), who earned the fifth title in school history and first since 1995.
Kieran Millan allowed three goals on 32 shots for the win.
The victory finished off a near-perfect season for BU, which won the Beanpot
as well as Hockey East regular season and playoff titles, finishing the year
as the top-ranked school in the nation. The school also garnered the overall
top seed for the tourney and gained its first championship contest since 1997
by besting Ohio State, New Hampshire and Vermont.
Tommy Wingels, Gary Steffes and Trent Vogelhuber scored for the RedHawks, who
were denied a chance to win the first national crown in any sport in school
history. Reichard suffered the hard-luck loss with 28 stops.
Out of the CCHA, Miami-Ohio (23-13-5) gained the first national hockey final
in program history after toppling Denver, Minnesota-Duluth and upstart Bemidji
State.
After failing on a late power play, Miami-Ohio took a 3-1 edge when Vogelhuber
drilled a shot inside the far post with just over four minutes to play.
Millan was pulled for an extra skater three times in the final 3 1/2 minutes,
and the move miraculously paid off twice. Cohen's backhander found space
through Reichard with just under one minute left, and Bonino tied it with 17.4
remaining.
BU scored the first goal of the contest, with 4:45 left in the opening period.
A point shot from David Warsofsky deflected off a Miami-Ohio player toward the
net, and Connolly was there to poke the puck home before Reichard could get
his glove down to cover.
Steffes equalized for Miami at 2:01 of the second period, as he slipped a
loose puck home from the edge of the crease.
Wingels deposited the rebound of Carter Camper's initial shot with 7:29 left
in regulation and the RedHawks led 2-1.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''

Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Super Bowl XLIII is now set, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers will meet each other on February 1st in Tampa's Raymond James Stadium to battle it out for the coveted Lombardi Trophy. The game kicks off at 6:00pm ET on NBC with announcers Al Michaels and John Madden covering the on-field action. Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds
Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:
Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)
Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line)
