Flyers F Briere day-to-day with groin injury

Hockey Betting Lines

03/06/2009 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Philadelphia Flyers forward Danny Briere is considered day-to-day after suffering a groin injury in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Calgary Flames.

Briere is not likely to play Saturday against Nashville, but the injury is apparently not as serious as was thought Thursday night.

Briere underwent an examination Friday morning, during which he was told adhesions from a previous groin surgery had broken and he had some internal bleeding -- but that those symptoms weren't uncommon.

Briere went through a small workout Friday and said he hoped to get back on the ice Saturday.

Briere's injury came in just his third game back after he missed 36 contests with the lingering effects of a groin strain, which included exploratory surgery back on January 22.

In 12 games this season, Briere has picked up five goals and nine points.

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
