Hockey Betting Lines

07/01/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia Flyers made yet another move to add depth to their defense, signing veteran blueliner Sean O'Donnell to a one-year contract on Thursday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but multiple sources indicate it is worth $1 million.

The 38-year-old Ottawa native completed his 15th NHL season by posting three goals and 15 points with a plus-14 rating in 78 regular-season games for the Los Angeles Kings.

He was held to one assist in six games during an opening-round playoff defeat against Vancouver.

Over 1,092 NHL games with the Kings (1994-00, 2008-10), Wild (2000-01), Devils (2001), Bruins (2001-04), Coyotes (2005-06) and Ducks (2006-08), O'Donnell has recorded 30 goals and 204 points with 1,699 penalty minutes.

The 6-foot-2, 237-pound blueliner combined with Chris Pronger to help Anaheim to a Stanley Cup title in 2007.

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.
