Chockey Betting Lines

04/09/2010 - Detroit, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Hobey Baker Memorial Award Executive Committee announced Friday that University of Wisconsin forward Blake Geoffrion was named the 30th winner of college hockey's most prestigious individual honor.

Named after a legendary Princeton hockey player who died in World War I, the award recognizes strength of character in players both on and off the ice.

Geoffrion, a 22-year-old senior and grandson of Montreal Canadiens Hall-of- Famer Bernie Geoffrion, is the first player in the storied history of the Badgers program to win the award.

Entering Saturday's NCAA final, he has posted 28 goals and 50 points in 39 games, which includes 19 goals and 34 points in 25 Western Collegiate Hockey Association contests.

He is also the first player from the WCHA to win since forward Ryan Duncan was named the top collegiate player in 2007 as a sophomore.

A pair of Hockey East players, senior forward Bobby Butler of New Hampshire and sophomore forward Gustav Nyquist, were the other two finalists.

Boston University defenseman Matt Gilroy took home the award last season.

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.
