Terriers shock RedHawks to win men's national hockey title

Chockey Betting Lines

04/11/2009 - Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Colby Cohen tallied with 8:13 remaining in the first overtime as Boston University rallied from a late two-goal deficit to defeat Miami-Ohio, 4-3, in the NCAA men's hockey national championship at Verizon Center.

Cohen used a turn-around shot from the left circle, which deflected off RedHawks' skater Kevin Roeder and dropped behind a stunned Cody Reichard to end the contest.

Zach Cohen, Chris Connolly and Nick Bonino also tallied for the Terriers (35-6-4), who earned the fifth title in school history and first since 1995. Kieran Millan allowed three goals on 32 shots for the win.

The victory finished off a near-perfect season for BU, which won the Beanpot as well as Hockey East regular season and playoff titles, finishing the year as the top-ranked school in the nation. The school also garnered the overall top seed for the tourney and gained its first championship contest since 1997 by besting Ohio State, New Hampshire and Vermont.

Tommy Wingels, Gary Steffes and Trent Vogelhuber scored for the RedHawks, who were denied a chance to win the first national crown in any sport in school history. Reichard suffered the hard-luck loss with 28 stops.

Out of the CCHA, Miami-Ohio (23-13-5) gained the first national hockey final in program history after toppling Denver, Minnesota-Duluth and upstart Bemidji State.

After failing on a late power play, Miami-Ohio took a 3-1 edge when Vogelhuber drilled a shot inside the far post with just over four minutes to play.

Millan was pulled for an extra skater three times in the final 3 1/2 minutes, and the move miraculously paid off twice. Cohen's backhander found space through Reichard with just under one minute left, and Bonino tied it with 17.4 remaining.

BU scored the first goal of the contest, with 4:45 left in the opening period. A point shot from David Warsofsky deflected off a Miami-Ohio player toward the net, and Connolly was there to poke the puck home before Reichard could get his glove down to cover.

Steffes equalized for Miami at 2:01 of the second period, as he slipped a loose puck home from the edge of the crease.

Wingels deposited the rebound of Carter Camper's initial shot with 7:29 left in regulation and the RedHawks led 2-1.

Game Notes

Boston University defenseman and Hobey Baker Award winner Matt Gilroy picked up an assist...There were 13 prior overtime title games, with the last coming in 2002, as Minnesota topped Maine.

Barry Bonds Watch: Giants Slugger Says He'll Be Back

"Barry's going to play in 2007," Jeff Borris of Beverly Hills Sports Council told the Times on Tuesday. "I've had many discussions with Barry and he's going to play. My intentions are to see to it he's in a big-league uniform next season. Those are my marching orders."

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).
