03/22/2009 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Anaheim Ducks will shoot for their first three-game winning streak in nearly four months when they welcome the Phoenix Coyotes for today's clash at the Honda Center.
The Ducks last won three in a row during a four-game winning streak from November 22-30 and have posted back-to-back victories on six occasions since that stretch.
Anaheim is coming off close wins over Nashville and these same Coyotes. The Ducks recorded an overtime win over the visiting Predators on Wednesday and won a shootout decision the following night at Phoenix. This is not a home- and-home series, however, as the Coyotes hosted Vancouver on Saturday.
Bobby Ryan scored the winner in the shootout as the Ducks got a big two points in the 3-2 win over the Coyotes. Anaheim has 74 points and is tied with Minnesota and Dallas for the 10th seed in the West. The trio is just three points behind Nashville for the conference's eighth and final postseason berth.
Petteri Nokelainen and Drew Miller each lit the lamp in regulation for the Ducks. Jonas Hiller finished the game with 26 saves for Anaheim.
The Ducks are just 17-16-3 as the host this year, but have won two of their last three on home ice.
The Coyotes have won two of their last three games, but are 14th in the West with 67 points on the year. Phoenix was in action on Saturday and recorded a 5-1 victory over the visiting Canucks.
Ilya Bryzgalov made 35 saves to lead the way in the decisive victory over Vancouver at Jobing.com Arena.
The Coyotes used an odd goal to help them post the win. Victor Tikhonov was credited with a second period tally, but it was actually Vancouver's Shane O'Brien that scored the goal. O'Brien scored on his own net while a delayed penalty was called on Tikhonov, who was given his eighth goal of the season.
Also scoring for Phoenix were Matthew Lombardi, Shane Doan, Daniel Winnik and Ed Jovanovski.
The Coyotes have lost four straight and six of their last seven road tests and are just 11-21-4 as the guest this season.
Anaheim has taken three of four from the Coyotes this season and has won five of the last six matchups overall in the series. Phoenix has dropped two of three at the Honda Center, but has also won four of its last six road tests against the Ducks.

Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.
Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.
Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds
With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.
That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.
Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.
After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.
The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
