03/01/2007 - Ottawa, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ray Emery stopped 27 shots for his fifth shutout of the season, as the Ottawa Senators shut down the Carolina Hurricanes, 2-0, in the back end of a home-and-home set between the teams at Scotiabank Place.
Dany Heatley and Jason Spezza tallied for the Senators, who have won eight of their last nine games, including two straight against Carolina.
Cam Ward made 24 saves in the loss for the Hurricanes, who have dropped two straight and three of five, and were also shutout for the eighth time this season.
Ottawa took a 1-0 lead at 3:54 of the first, as Spezza's initial sharp-angle try kicked off Ward right to Heatley, who tucked the rebound off the far post and in.
The Sens upped the advantage to 2-0 with 4:41 played in the third, when defenseman Wade Redden hit Spezza in stride right out of the penalty box, and the center had half the ice to himself before rifling the puck past Ward from the slot.
Carolina outshot the hosts 14-6 in the final 20 minutes, but Emery was equal to the task by turning aside each chance to preserve the win.
Game Notes
Ottawa took the season series, 3-1-0...Emery now has eight career shutouts...Heatley's goal gives him a nine-game point streak (7-8-15), and Spezza's goal also increased his point streak to nine games (7-10-17)...The last time Carolina had been blanked at least eight times in one season occurred in 2002-2003...Neither team scored in 13 combined power-play chances...Ottawa plays in Atlanta on Friday, while Carolina hosts Pittsburgh on Friday.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:
Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)
