03/13/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chris Pronger scored the game-winner with 2.1 seconds left in regulation as Philadelphia edged Chicago, 3-2, at Wachovia Center.
With time winding down, Claude Giroux carried the puck down the right-wing side and waited at the outer edge of the right circle, until Pronger raced down the left side and was able to redirect the cross-ice pass into a half- open net.
Simon Gagne and Scott Hartnell also recorded third-period scores for the Flyers, who have won three of four.
Michael Leighton, who was making his 13th consecutive start, stopped 39-of-41 shots for Philadelphia, which has won 13 of the last 15 meetings against Chicago since December, 1997.
Kris Versteeg and Marian Hossa tallied for the Blackhawks, who had taken three of four games coming in and failed in their bid to tie idle San Jose for the top spot in the Western Conference. The Sharks still hold a two-point lead (95-93) over Chicago.
Cristobal Huet made 31 saves in the setback.
In a scoreless first period, Leighton made 15 saves and Huet stopped 12 shots.
Leighton continued to shine in the second, diving across the crease to stop a Hossa chance midway through. Huet responded by staying strong despite intense Flyers pressure in the final 90 seconds of the period, including a great sprawling stop on Dan Carcillo from 10 feet.
Gagne broke the deadlock at the 1:18 mark of the third period, taking a dish from Carcillo and beating a diving Huet from the left circle.
Versteeg knotted the game at 3:01 while Chicago was on the power play, chipping home a rebound from the left side.
Hossa gave the 'Hawks a 2-1 lead with 7:09 left in regulation, but Hartnell fought off a defender and beat Huet off the left post with 2:04 to play.
Game Notes
Pronger's last game-winning tally occurred on January 19 against Columbus, and his last goal of any kind came on January 23 against Carolina...Chicago has not won in Philadelphia since November 9, 1996, having lost eight straight since then...Hartnell broke a 13-game goalless drought stretching back to January 30.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook
Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds. The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.
Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.
Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
Be sure to log onto online sports betting site MySportsbook.com to check out the odds for who will lead the MLB in home runs this season. Below is just a sample of the players listed. With the highest credit card rates in the industry, MySportsbook.com is the place to bet on baseball this summer.
