03/16/2010 - St. Paul, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andrew Ebbett and Martin Havlat each had a goal and an assist, as the Minnesota Wild defeated the road-weary Edmonton Oilers, 4-2, at Xcel Energy Center.
Chuck Kobasew and Antti Miettinen also lit the lamp for the Wild, who have beat the Oilers 13 straight times in the Twin Cities. Josh Harding made 34 saves for Minnesota, which has won three in a row and now sits six points behind the Red Wings for the eighth spot in the Western Conference.
Marc Pouliot and Ryan Potulny each scored for the Oilers, who have lost six straight and 17 of their last 18 overall on the road. Jeff Deslauriers turned aside 24-of-28 shots for Edmonton, which has a league-worst 49 points.
Trailing 2-1 in the third, Potulny lit the lamp with a snap shot at the 1:14 mark to deadlock the contest.
Minnesota went ahead 3-2 on Kobasew's goal at the 4:37 mark. Kyle Brodziak, who was positioned behind the net, slid a pass in front for Kobasew, whose backhander beat Deslauriers.
Havlat added an insurance goal at the 8:15 mark. However, Edmonton went on the power play with 3:33 remaining when Cal Clutterbuck was called for interference. The Oilers then pulled Deslauriers for a 6-on-4 advantage, but Minnesota's defense held strong to secure the win.
The Wild got on the board with 2:22 left in the first period. Guillaume Latendresse's one-timer from the top of the right circle was deflected in by Ebbett.
Pouliot's goal at the 8:36 mark tied things up. Jason Strudwick's shot from the right point was deflected into the back of the net by Pouliot.
Miettinen's wrister got past Deslauriers' glove with 2:04 remaining to put Minnesota ahead 2-1.

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.
Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.
MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .
''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''
Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.
He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.
''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''
Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.
Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.
With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
