Red Wings gain three-point edge on Flames

Calgary, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tomas Holmstrom scored the game-winning goal
late in the third period, as the Detroit Red Wings edged the Calgary Flames,
2-1, in a battle between two playoff-hopeful teams at Pengrowth Saddledome.
Pavel Datsyuk also scored for the Red Wings, who have won three in a row and
now lead the Flames by three points for the final playoff spot in the Western
Conference. Jimmy Howard made 22 saves.
Craig Conroy lit the lamp for the Flames, who have dropped two straight
following a four-game winning streak. Miikka Kiprusoff turned aside 26-of-28
shots in defeat.
With the scored tied at 1-1 in the third, the Flames had a golden chance to
score due to Brian Rafalski's high-sticking double minor at the 3:12 mark.
Calgary failed to capitalize on the extended power play.
Holmstrom's goal with 1:19 remaining put the Red Wings ahead. Johan Franzen's
slapper from the left point deflected off Holmstrom's stick and past
Kiprusoff.
Calgary pulled Kiprusoff for an extra attacker, but Howard and Detroit's
defense held strong to secure the victory.
"We need our power play to capitalize for us," Flames head coach Brent Sutter
said. "I'm sure there are some guys disappointed but there are 13 games left
which is a still lot of hockey to play. Full marks to Detroit, they played
well here tonight. We've got to find ways to win tight games."
The Flames got on the board just 1:47 into the first period. The Red Wings
turned the puck over while trying to clear their own zone. Nigel Dawes' shot
from in close set up a rebound for Conroy, whose backhander found the back of
the net.
A Steve Staios interference penalty put Detroit on the power play with 2:06 to
play in the second. But just over 30 seconds into the man advantage, Flames
forward Curtis Glencross was hooked from behind by Henrik Zetterberg on a
breakaway. Glencross failed to capitalize on the ensuing penalty shot.
The Red Wings used the momentum from Howard's stop to score a power-play goal
with just under a minute left. Datsyuk made his way into the top of the slot
and fired a wrister into the upper left corner of the net to tie the game.
Game Notes

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.
