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.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
