Hockey Betting Lines

06/09/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia Flyers and Chicago Blackhawks are tied at 1-1 after one period of play in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals from Wachovia Center.

The Blackhawks got on the board during their second power-play opportunity of the period, with Flyers defenseman Chris Pronger off for high-sticking.

After a scrum to the right of the Philadelphia net, Dustin Byfuglien was alone at the top of the crease to shovel home a centering feed by Jonathan Toews at the 16:49 mark.

Blackhawks backliner Brent Seabrook was given an elbowing penalty seconds after the score but Philadelphia came up empty. Chicago blueliner Brent Sopel followed with an interference infraction with 53 seconds to play in the first and the home team finally capitalized.

Danny Briere shot from the bottom of the right circle, and the rebound came out to Scott Hartnell, who backhanded the puck through Antti Niemi's legs while facing away from the cage at 19:33.

Flyers netminder Michael Leighton was peppered with 17 shots in the first 20 minutes and made 16 saves. Niemi was only tested seven times and stopped six.

Chicago was awarded the game's first power play at the 8:42 mark when Pronger was sent off for holding, and save for one shot that hit the left post early in the advantage, the Flyers were equal to the task.

The Flyers then worked on a power play with 6:32 to play in the first on a Sopel interference call and were not credited with a shot despite good pressure.
