Domination in the desert: Red Wings crush Coyotes in Game 7

Hockey Betting Lines

04/27/2010 - Glendale, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Pavel Datsyuk and Nicklas Lidstrom both scored twice, as the Detroit Red Wings pounded the Phoenix Coyotes, 6-1, in Game 7 of the last Western Conference quarterfinal series.

Brad Stuart and Todd Bertuzzi also scored while Jimmy Howard made 32 saves for the Red Wings, who advanced to face the San Jose Sharks in the conference semifinals. Henrik Zetterberg and Brian Rafalski both posted three assists for Detroit, which competed in a Game 7 on the road for the first time since 1991.

Vernon Fiddler scored the only goal for the Coyotes, whose upstart season came to an end in front of their home crowd. First year head coach Dave Tippett brought Phoenix back into the postseason for the first time in eight years but the Red Wings were simply too much in the final game of this see-saw series.

Phoenix goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov was strong at times and kept the Coyotes in the game well into the second period, but the final tally sheet showed six goals allowed on 50 shots. Phoenix again played without the services of captain Shane Doan, who missed the final four games of the series with an upper-body injury.

The Coyotes remained without a postseason series win since 1987 and are now 0-6 in the playoffs since the franchise relocated to Arizona from Winnipeg.

The upcoming Detroit-San Jose series is one which most figured to see in the conference finals, but the two perennial Western powers will now go to battle. San Jose will have home-ice advantage, as all four higher seeds advanced in the West.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
