Hockey Betting Lines

07/16/2010 - Frisco, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Dallas Stars signed veteran defenseman Brad Lukowich and two others to one-year, two-way contracts on Friday.

Lukowich, 33, has registered 23 goals and 90 assists in 653 regular season NHL games with six teams. He returns to the Stars, where he spent parts of five seasons with the club from 1997-2002 and helped Dallas win the Stanley Cup in the 1998-99 campaign. Lukowich also won a Cup with Tampa Bay in the 2003-04 season.

Over 71 playoff contests, the blueliner has one goal and six points.

The Stars also agreed to terms with defenseman Trevor Ludwig and forward Raymond Sawada on one-year, two-way contracts, while defenseman Maxime Fortunus inked a two-year, two-way contract.

Fortunus, 26, skated eight games with the NHL club in 2009-10 and did not tally a point, while Ludwig, 25, a sixth-round selection of the Stars in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft, has no NHL experience. Sawada, a 24-year-old, saw action in five games for the Stars last year and did not register a point.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
