Chockey Betting Lines

04/08/2010 - Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ben Smith notched a pair of goals and one assist, as Boston College dominated Miami-Ohio, 7-1, in a Frozen Four matchup from Ford Field.

Joe Whitney added a goal and two helpers for the Eagles (28-10-3), who downed Alaska-Fairbanks and Yale to reach the semifinals for the ninth time in 12 years. BC will take on Wisconsin for the national championship on Saturday.

John Muse made 17 stops for Boston College, which advances to the NCAA title contest for the fourth time in five seasons. Saturday's contest will be a rematch of the 2006 championship contest, which the Badgers won by a 2-1 score.

Joe Hartman picked up the lone score for the RedHawks (29-8-7), who topped Alabama-Huntsville and Michigan to gain the semis.

Connor Knapp was pulled after allowing three goals on nine shots over 23-plus minutes in defeat for Miami-Ohio, which was bidding to reach the title game for the second consecutive campaign. Cody Reichard finished the game allowing four scores on 21 shots.

Smith gave the Eagles a 1-0 lead on the advantage with 1:28 to play in the first period, when he redirected Whitney's slap-pass in the slot.

BC doubled its advantage at 2:06 of the second period when Jimmy Hayes was left alone in the slot to one-time a feed from Pat Mullane to convert a power- play chance.

Whitney roofed a shot from the slot at 3:08, and the Eagles led by three after two periods.

Hartman's seeing-eye shot got the RedHawks on the board at 5:19 of the third, but BC struck back for three tallies in a span of 1:35 to wrap up the game.

First, Cam Atkinson's backhander made it 4-1 at 10:10, then Patch Alber provided a four-goal bulge with 9:12 remaining, wristing his first career tally inside the left post 34 seconds later. Paul Carey finished the burst at 11:45.

Smith finished off the scoring with 3:39 remaining.

In the earlier semifinal matchup, Derek Stepan posted two goals and two assists as Wisconsin routed RIT, 8-1.

Justin Schultz and Hobey Baker Award finalist Blake Geoffrion posted a goal and one assist each for the Badgers (28-10-4), who are looking for their seventh national crown.

Tyler Brenner provided the lone goal for the Tigers (28-12-1), the Atlantic Hockey champions who knocked off perennial powers Denver and New Hampshire to reach the semifinals for the first time in school history.

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.
