03/13/2010 - Uniondale, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sean Bergenheim scored a short-handed goal late in the third period as the New York Islanders took down the New Jersey Devils, 4-2 at Nassau Coliseum.
Freddy Meyer, Jon Sim and Mark Streit also scored for the Islanders, who ended their four-game losing streak. Dwayne Roloson stopped 38 shots for the win.
Mike Mottau and Ilya Kovalchuk each found the net for the Devils, who had won two straight coming in. Former Islander netminder Yann Danis filled in for the resting Martin Brodeur and allowed four goals on 29 shots in defeat.
After Isles defenseman Dylan Reese was assessed a double-minor for high sticking at 9:15 in the final period, Blake Comeau started a 2-on-1 break, finding Bergenheim wide open in front for the score at 11:33, extending the Isles margin to 4-2.
The goal was reviewed as the net appeared to come off its hinges slightly, but the call stood.
The Devils had a 5-on-3 advantage for almost a minute shortly after the goal, but the Islanders and Roloson were able to stand a furious New Jersey attack.
Danis was pulled with 1:37 left, but the extra skater didn't help the Devils trim their deficit.
Mottau put the Devils on the scoreboard first at 2:52 into the game, as he simply threw the puck on net from the right boards and sailed between a screened Roloson's legs.
The Islanders tied the game on a 3-on-2 break as Josh Bailey dished to Tim Jackman, who lifted a wrister that bounced off of Danis and was tipped in by Meyer with 2:37 left in the opening period.
In the second, Richard Park drove the neutral zone and was sandwiched between two Devils defenders as the puck trickled back to Sim, who blasted it past Danis at 11:59 to give the Isles the 2-1 lead.
Just 50 seconds later, the Islanders added to the lead on the power play when Frans Nielsen fed Streit at the left point, for a slapshot that was deflected by a Devil and trickled past Danis.
But the Devils bounced back 1:41 into the third, when Dean McAmmond left a drop pass for Kovalchuk, who uncorked a slap shot from the right boards for his 36th goal of the year.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
