Hockey Betting Lines

03/02/2010 - St. Paul, MN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Minnesota Wild have signed defenseman Marek Zidlicky to a three-year contract extension through the 2012-13 season.

Zidlicky is fourth on the Wild in scoring with five goals and 31 assists in 60 games this season. The 33-year-old logged five assists for the Czech Republic in the recently completed Vancouver Olympic Games.

"Marek logs a large number of minutes every night and also creates a lot of offense for our team," said Minnesota general manager Chuck Fletcher in announcing the deal. "We are excited he has agreed to continue to play with the Wild."

Zidlicky is in his sixth NHL season and second with the Wild after being acquired from Nashville in the 2008 offseason. In 443 career games for the Predators and Wild, he has 52 goals and 201 assists.

The Wild also announced a two-year extension for defenseman Clayton Stoner that runs through the 2011-12 season. The 25-year-old appeared in eight games and collected two assists earlier this season before landing on injured reserve following surgery for a sports hernia on February 12.

"Stoner is a young defenseman that adds size and toughness to our defensive corps," added Fletcher. "We are excited about his future with the Wild."

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
