01/27/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Pittsburgh Penguins continue their push towards a possible playoff spot this evening, where the up-and-coming club visits the Phoenix Coyotes at Jobing.com Arena.
Pittsburgh has won four of its last five games and moved past the New York Rangers and Toronto and into sole possession of eighth place in the Eastern Conference standings with Friday's thrilling shootout win at Dallas. Erik Christensen had the only goal during the deciding phase to give the Penguins a 4-3 victory.
Mark Recchi scored the 499th and 500th goals of his career to help Pittsburgh prevail, while Ryan Whitney and NHL scoring leader Sidney Crosby each finished with a pair of assists. Marc-Andre Fleury gave a strong effort between the pipes, making 32 saves in regulation and stopping all three Dallas skaters in the shootout.
Recchi became the 38th player in league history to reach the milestone when he tied the contest at 3-3 on a power-play goal with 8:01 left in the third period.
Whitney has now registered an assist in six straight games, while teammate Michel Ouellet is also currently riding a six-game scoring streak. Ouellet had an assist in Friday's triumph and has compiled two goals and eight helpers during his run.
The Penguins, who have not made the postseason since 2000-01, have amassed 25 goals as a team over their last five outings.
Phoenix also came out of the All-Star break with a shootout victory, as Ladislav Nagy had the clinching goal in the Coyotes' 5-4 triumph over Colorado at the Pepsi Center.
All-Star Yanic Perreault scored a pair of third-period goals to rally Phoenix back from a 4-2 deficit. Curtis Joseph denied all three Avalanche players in the shootout and ended with 23 saves for the Coyotes, who halted a 10-game winless streak in Denver.
Tonight's contest marks the first matchup between these clubs since February 25, 2004, when the Penguins skated away with a 4-3 overtime win in Glendale. Pittsburgh had lost six in a row to the Coyotes prior to that victory and snapped a seven-game road winless streak in the series with that triumph.
The Penguins are just 1-5-2 (two ties) all-time in Arizona.

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year
Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.
Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.
With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.
Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.
Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
