Hockey Betting Lines

03/18/2009 - Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Blackhawks have activated center Samuel Pahlsson from the injured reserve list.

Pahlsson, acquired from Anaheim at the trade deadline, will likely make his debut for the Blackhawks on Wednesday against Columbus. He had been sidelined since February 1 with mononucleosis.

The 31-year-old native of Sweden has five goals and 10 assists in 52 games this season. He was the leading faceoff man for the Ducks, winning 54 percent of his draws.

Pahlsson, set to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season, has 52 goals and 91 assists for 143 points in 544 NHL games with Boston and Anaheim. He was a member of the Ducks' Stanley Cup championship squad in the spring of 2007.

The Blackhawks also assigned left wing Pascal Pelletier to the club's AHL affiliate in Rockford. He failed to score in seven games with Chicago, but leads Rockford with 27 goals this season.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
