03/14/2010 - Vancouver, BC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mikael Samuelsson scored twice, as the Vancouver Canucks returned home to GM Place with a 5-1 win over the Ottawa Senators.
The Canucks were forced to play 14 straight games on the road, spanning six weeks, because of the Olympics. It was the longest sequence of road games by a team in NHL history.
Alexandre Burrows, Daniel Sedin and Sami Salo also scored for the Canucks, who have won three of their last four games. Canadian gold medal-winning goaltender Roberto Luongo pushed aside 13 shots.
Jason Spezza tallied the lone score for the Senators, who have dropped five of six. Goaltender Pascal Leclaire racked up 30 saves.
The Canucks started the scoring off on the power play at 17:46 in the first period. Salo passed the puck from the right point over to the left to Pavol Demitra, who found Samuelsson for the wrister and the goal.
Ottawa tied the game at the three minute mark of the second. Spezza carried the puck the length the ice, splitting defenders and eventually putting the puck through Luongo's legs.
Vancouver re-took the lead at 2-1 on a Burrows breakaway. Burrows stole the puck in the defensive zone and carried it in on Leclaire, beating the netminder above the right shoulder for his 31st of the season at 9:12 of the second period.
The Canucks struck again 2:18 later when the streaking Samuelsson scored his second of the night and 30th of the year on a perfect pass from Daniel Sedin through the middle of the zone for the backhanded score.
Vancouver extended its edge to 4-1 at the 16:07 mark, as Henrik Sedin found the puck behind the net and threw it in front to Daniel Sedin for the easy put in.
Salo put the game out of reach at 5-1 with just under nine minutes remaining, taking a pass in the slot from Alexander Edler on the right boards and lifting it over a screened Leclaire.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
Be sure to log on to MySportsbook.com to check out the complete odds for NFL MVP as well as all of the new football related futures. With the popularity of NFL futures, these betting lines will be sure to change as the money comes in; get the early sports lines now.
