Tampa Bay acquires O'Brien from Anaheim

Hockey Betting Lines

02/25/2007 - Tampa, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tampa Bay acquired defenseman Shane O'Brien and a third-round pick in 2007 from the Anaheim Ducks for goaltender Gerald Coleman and a 2007 first-round draft pick on Saturday.

O'Brien has appeared in 62 games this season, his first in the NHL, and notched two goals along with 12 assists and 140 penalty minutes. He was drafted by Anaheim in 2003, and played for Portland in the AHL last season.

"Shane O'Brien is a big, young, mobile, physical defenseman who makes a strong first pass out of the zone and is not afraid to jump in and join the rush," said Tampa Bay vice president and general manager Jay Feaster."We believe he will thrive within our system and will develop into a top four defenseman.

The 21-year-old Coleman has a 2-1-0 record in three games with Springfield of the AHL, compiling a 2.01 goals-against average and a .940 save percentage this season.

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.
