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.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
