Nashville officially brings in Kostitsyn

Hockey Betting Lines

07/06/2010 - Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Nashville Predators officially locked up restricted free-agent forward Sergei Kostitsyn on Tuesday.

The deal is worth $550,000 for the upcoming season.

Nashville acquired the embattled Kostitsyn from the Montreal Canadiens on June 29 in exchange for goaltender Dan Ellis and forward Dustin Boyd.

A native of Belarus, Kostitsyn notched seven goals and 18 points in 47 regular-season games with the Habs last year. Despite Montreal's surprise run to the Eastern Conference finals which included wins over top-seed Washington and defending Cup champion Pittsburgh, he failed to record a point in five playoff contests and was a healthy scratch for the remainder.

Over his three-year NHL career, all with Montreal, the 23-year-old has compiled 24 goals and 68 points in 155 games.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
