Tonight ST. Crush Edge Into Blues

Hockey Betting Lines

Vrbata owns 14 goals in his last 22 games after scoring only once in his first nine contests.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The fist-place Minnesota Wild will try to avoid their first three-game losing streak of the season when they host the lowly New York Islanders for this evening's clash at Xcel Energy Center. The Wild, who are leading the Northwest Division and are tied for the top spot in the Western Conference with 44 points, dropped consecutive games on back- to-back nights this week.

 

"Getting a point is good, but getting two is better and that's what we want to do every night when we're out there," said Cullen. "We can't get down on ourselves for this one, we played a good game, just a few bad plays."

 

Wild goaltender Josh Harding has been activated from injured reserve and will at least serve as Backstrom's backup tonight. Harding, who is 7-2-1 with a 2.14 goals-against average on the season, last played on Dec. 6 when he suffered a neck injury in San Jose. Rookie Matt Hackett had been serving as Minnesota's second goaltender, but was sent back to Houston of the AHL to make room for Harding.

 

The Islanders are last in the Eastern Conference with 24 points and enter tonight on a four-game losing streak. New York is also just 3-6-3 as the visiting team this year and is kicking off a three-game road trip tonight.

 

Kyle Okposo and Michael Grabner scored for the Islanders, while Kevin Poulin stopped 26 shots in defeat.

 

New York goaltenders Rick DiPietro and Evgeni Nabokov are currently battling groin injuries so either Poulin or Al Montoya is expected to get the call in net tonight.

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.
