Blackhawks acquire Morrison from Flames
Hockey Betting Lines
01/27/2012 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Blackhawks gained a veteran center on Friday by acquiring Brendan Morrison from the Calgary Flames in exchange for defenseman Brian Connelly.
The 36-year-old Morrison had spent the past 1 1/2 seasons with the Flames and had totaled four goals and seven assists in 28 contests this season. In 923 games, with New Jersey, Vancouver, Dallas, Anaheim, Washington, and the Flames, he has collected 200 goals and 401 assists.
"We felt it was going to be difficult for us to find a spot for Brendan or get him significant ice-time," Flames general manager Jay Feaster said. "In Brian Connelly we obtain a 25-year-old highly skilled AHL All-Star defenseman who is still a legitimate prospect."
Morrison also tied a career-high earlier this season with a four-point effort on December 6 against Carolina.
Connelly, 25, has spent parts of the last four seasons as a member of the American Hockey League's Rockford IceHogs. During that time, he has compiled 21 goals and 105 assists in 211 regular-season games.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
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
