Hockey Betting Lines

03/18/2009 - Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Blackhawks have activated center Samuel Pahlsson from the injured reserve list.

Pahlsson, acquired from Anaheim at the trade deadline, will likely make his debut for the Blackhawks on Wednesday against Columbus. He had been sidelined since February 1 with mononucleosis.

The 31-year-old native of Sweden has five goals and 10 assists in 52 games this season. He was the leading faceoff man for the Ducks, winning 54 percent of his draws.

Pahlsson, set to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season, has 52 goals and 91 assists for 143 points in 544 NHL games with Boston and Anaheim. He was a member of the Ducks' Stanley Cup championship squad in the spring of 2007.

The Blackhawks also assigned left wing Pascal Pelletier to the club's AHL affiliate in Rockford. He failed to score in seven games with Chicago, but leads Rockford with 27 goals this season.

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

Patriots -5 @ Jets +5

Eagles -3.5 @ Packers +3.5

Steelers -4 @ Browns +4

Titans +6 @ Jaguars -6

Bears +6 @ Chargers -6

Lions +3 @ Raiders -3

Bucs +6.5 @ Seahawks -6.5

Giants +4 @ Cowboys -4

Ravens +3 @ Bengals -3

Cardinals +3 @ 49ers -3
