02/16/2012 - Edmonton, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tim Connolly scored the game-winning goal just 1:39 into the overtime period, leading the Toronto Maple Leafs to a 4-3 win over the Edmonton Oilers at Rexall Place.
Joffrey Lupul collected the disc in the defensive zone and raced up the left wing on a 3-on-1. Lupul held the puck until he got to the circle and feathered a pass over to Connolly, who easily tapped it in for the winner.
Lupul, Matthew Lombardi and Jake Gardiner all scored in regulation for the Leafs, who snapped a season-high four-game losing streak. James Reimer made 29 saves in the victory.
Ben Eager, Taylor Hall and Jordan Eberle lit the lamp for the Oilers, who had their four-game winning streak on home ice snapped. Nikolai Khabibulin was tagged for all four goals on 26 shots in defeat.
The Leafs wasted no time opening the scoring, finding the back of the net just 40 seconds into the contest.
Phil Kessel gained the blue line on the rush and cut to the slot before dropping it off for Lupul, who ripped a quick wrister past the glove side of Khabibulin.
Toronto extended its lead to 2-0 just 58 seconds later when Cody Franson sent a pass right up the middle to Lombardi at the blue line and the veteran center went in on Khabibulin and buried a backhander.
The Oilers cut the deficit to 2-1 54 seconds later after Lennart Petrell chased down a loose puck behind the net and swung it out front to Eager, who fired it into an empty cage.
Edmonton knotted the game at two at 8:15 of the second period when Hall drove hard to the net and was rewarded with a nice pass from Sam Gagner before redirecting it past Reimer from in close.
The Leafs retook the lead with a power-play tally at 6:46 of the third period after Clarke MacArthur backhanded a pass off the left wing wall right to Gardiner, who one-timed it past Khabibulin from the point.
Edmonton, though, fought back to tie things at three with 4:04 to play in regulation after Eberle fought off two checkers in the slot and fired a perfect wrister high over the left shoulder of Reimer and just under the crossbar.
"We had a slow start but came back hard and played a good game," Eager said. "We had our chances to win, but unfortunately couldn't convert."

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
