Hockey Betting Lines

03/15/2010 - Newark, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Zach Parise scored the eventual game-winner late in the first period, as the New Jersey Devils held off the Boston Bruins, 3-2, at Prudential Center.

David Clarkson had a goal and an assist for the Devils, who have won three of four to move within two points of the Penguins, who lead the Atlantic Division with 87 points. Rob Niedermayer also lit the lamp for New Jersey, which got 34 saves from Martin Brodeur.

Blake Wheeler finished with a goal and an assist for the Bruins, who fell to 2-3-1 on a seven-game road trip that ends Tuesday in Carolina. Patrice Bergeron also scored for Boston, which has 72 points and sits in eighth in the Eastern Conference.

Tim Thomas allowed three goals on 12 shots in the first period before being pulled for Tuukka Rask, who turned aside all 16 shots he faced.

Down 3-1 in the third, the Bruins went on the power play at the 14:43 mark. Brodeur held strong in net, though, to keep it a two-goal game.

Boston then pulled Rask for an extra attacker. With 1:03 to go, Dennis Seidenberg's one-timer from the right point was deflected in by Bergeron to cut the gap to 3-2. But New Jersey held on from there.

The Devils got on the board at the 9:58 mark of the first period. Clarkson's shot from the slot was deflected in by Niedermayer, who was screening Thomas.

Clarkson's goal with 2:37 remaining made it a 2-0 game. Brodeur slid a beautiful tape-to-tape pass to Clarkson, who gathered the disc at center and used a backhander to score on a breakaway.

Parise lit the lamp less than a minute later to give New Jersey a three-goal cushion. A shot from the top of the slot left a rebound in front for Parise, whose backhander beat Thomas.

Boston cut the gap to 3-1 on Wheeler's score 43 seconds into the second. Mark Stuart's shot from along the goal line was deflected into the back of the net by Wheeler.

The Devils had a goal called off with 11:07 remaining due to a high stick.

Game Notes

The Devils have won four straight at home...Boston was without defenseman Andrew Ference (groin)...New Jersey leads the season series with the Bruins, 3-0...New Jersey has won five of six and nine of its last 12 overall versus Boston as well as five of the last six played in the Garden State.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
