Hockey Betting Lines

03/18/2009 - Vancouver, BC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mats Sundin and Ryan Kesler both registered a goal and an assist, as the Vancouver Canucks doubled up the Dallas Stars to set a franchise record with their 10th straight win on home ice.

Steve Ott and Stephane Robidas found the net for Dallas, which has dropped three of its last five games. Marty Turco took the loss with a 21-save performance.

The clubs exchanged power-play goals in the first period. Sedin opened the scoring at 6:33, then Robidas answered for the visitors at 16:48.

Kesler gave Vancouver the lead for good at the 6:55 mark of the middle stanza. Pavol Demitra made a drop pass to Kesler just inside the blueline. Kesler powered his way to the net, pulled the puck to the backhand and lifted it past Turco.

Sundin added a power-play marker midway through the second period for a 3-1 Canucks lead.

Ott lit the lamp at 8:12 of the third period, but Bernier tickled the twine with 4:55 remaining to cement the win.

Game Notes

Kevin Bieksa notched two assists for Vancouver, which is 21-11-4 at home...Dallas fell to 14-16-4 as the guest...The Stars had won four of the last five matchups versus the Canucks.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5

Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1

Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3
