Bruins remain hot with road win over Isles

Hockey Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - Uniondale, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tim Thomas stopped 37 shots as Boston clipped the New York Islanders, 3-2, at Nassau Coliseum.

Milan Lucic, David Krejci and Marc Savard tallied for the Bruins, who have won five of six.

Josh Bailey and Matt Moulson scored for the Islanders, who have dropped two in a row and three of four.

Dwayne Roloson suffered the loss despite a 31-save performance.

Down by two goals, the Islanders received a prime chance to get back in the contest, when Isles forward Blake Comeau was hit from behind into the boards by Bruins forward Michael Ryder with 3:54 to play in the second. While Comeau was escorted from the ice on a stretcher, Ryder was given a major and game misconduct.

New York failed to convert on a significant portion of the advantage until intermission, then did not close its deficit on the remainder at the start of the third.

Moulson finally got the Isles within a goal at the 5:43 mark, but the home team could not solve Thomas from there, including a stretch in the final 1:18 with an extra skater.

Lucic notched the lone goal of the first period, on a quick high wrister from the slot with 1:34 to play.

Bailey evened the score on a power play 2:18 into the second, but Krejci finished off a slick pass from Miroslav Satan at 5:04.

Boston went up 3-1 on the power play when Patrice Bergeron's rising point shot went sailing over the net, but caromed right to Savard's feet for an easy backhand tap-in at 9:20 of the second stanza.

Game Notes

The clubs split four meetings this season, with each team winning once at home and on the road...Boston heads to Pittsburgh on Sunday and New York waits until Tuesday to play in Philadelphia.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
