Deslauriers, Oilers blank Devils
Hockey Betting Lines
03/07/2010 - Edmonton, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers made 22 saves for his third shutout of the season to help the Edmonton Oilers take a 2-0 win over the New Jersey Devils at Rexall Place.
Gilbert Brule and Marc Pouliot each had a goal for the Oilers, who have won two straight on the heels of a three-game losing streak.
Martin Brodeur was charged with two goals on 35 shots for the Devils, who lost three of four contests during a four-game road trip.
It was a slow start for the two teams as they combined for just nine shots in the first period, six from New Jersey, with the goaltenders turning them all aside.
Edmonton then put the puck in the net just 1:23 into the middle stanza as Patrick O'Sullivan sent a pass from behind the left side of the net to the front where Brule redirected it home.
From there the two goaltenders took over again as Brodeur finished the frame with 15 saves and Deslauriers stopped nine.
The Oilers tacked on an insurance goal 8:28 into the third period. At the right circle, Robert Nilsson got his stick on the puck as he was falling to the ice and sent it over to the left circle where Pouliot wristed it home.
Deslauriers needed to make just seven stops in the third period to complete the shutout.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.
(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977. Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.
Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer. In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season.
MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season. Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite. After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.
Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions. They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals. The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
