02/19/2007 - Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Lubomir Visnovsky scored in the sixth round of the shootout, to lift the Los Angeles Kings to a 4-3 victory over the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center.
Visnovsky added a goal and an assist in regulation and Michael Cammalleri had a goal and two helpers for the Kings, who ended a two-game slide and won for just the fourth time in their last 18 games.
Sean Burke got the start between the pipes for Los Angeles and finished with 39 saves.
Teemu Selanne scored a goal and picked up two assists for the Ducks, who were aiming to win their third consecutive game. With his goal, his 301st with the Ducks, Selanne became all the all-time leading scorer in Anaheim franchise history, moving ahead of Paul Kariya.
Jean-Sebastien Giguere allowed three goals on 24 shots in the loss.
With the shootout tied at two goals apiece after five rounds, Anaheim's Rob Niedermayer was denied in tight by Burke, who stacked his pads to make the save on a wrister.
Visnovsky then won it for Los Angeles after deking down low and sliding a backhander through the pads of Giguere to give LA the extra point.
Visnovsky tallied a power-play goal at 13:04 of the first to open the scoring and give the Kings a 1-0 lead. Cammalleri controlled the puck in the slot and slid a pass to Visnovsky at the left point. He then cranked a slap shot over Giguere's glove for his 15th goal of the season.
The Ducks evened the score at 1-1 just 1:54 into the second stanza after Chris Kunitz tallied his 20th goal of the campaign. Kunitz took a feed from Selanne down low and deposited the disc past Burke on his stick side.
Los Angeles regained the lead and went up 2-1 at 7:46 of the second after Cammalleri fired a wrister from the slot that saw the puck hit off Giguere's glove and over the goal line.
Selanne tied the game early in the third period at 2-2 with his 36th goal of the season. Just 1:01 into the frame, Selanne ripped a quick snap shot from the right circle past Burke on the near side.
Almost three minutes later, Derek Armstrong put the Kings back in front at 3-2 with his 10th goal of the year.
Anaheim continued to fight back and made it 3-3 at 10:34 of the third. On the power play, Selanne centered a pass to the slot to Ryan Getzlaf, who one-timed the feed past Burke.

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.
Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.
Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.
The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
