Blue Jackets avoid arbitration with Stralman
Hockey Betting Lines
07/28/2010 -
Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Columbus Blue Jackets have re-signed
defenseman Anton Stralman to a one-year contract.
Financial terms were not disclosed, but the agreement avoided a salary
arbitration hearing scheduled for Wednesday.
"We are pleased that we were able to come to a negotiated settlement," said
Blue Jackets general manager Scott Howson. "We look forward to having Anton
back on our blue line this season."
Stralman scored six goals and added 28 assists for 34 points in 73 games last
season, his first with the Blue Jackets. He led Columbus defensemen in assists
and points.
The Blue Jackets acquired Stralman from Calgary last September, sending a
third-round pick to the Flames in return. Calgary had traded for the native of
Sweden in July 2009 as part of a deal with Toronto.
Stralman, who will turn 24 on August 1, has 10 goals and 46 assists for 56
points in 161 NHL games. He played his first two NHL seasons with the Maple
Leafs, who selected him with the 216th overall pick of the 2005 Entry Draft.

Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament odds
As of February 9, MySportsbook.com has released its coveted 2007 Mens NCAA Basketball Tournament betting odds. “March Madness betting ” only a month away, the top ranked Florida Gators are favorite at 7-2 to win it all. The defending champs have not disappointed at all this season and currently have a 22-2 record and are undefeated (9-0) in SEC play. The Gators’ thrive off of their extremely balanced, experienced and versatile attack. All five starters started in last seasons National Championship game. What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.
Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
Other teams that the MySportsbook.com members seem to believe will win it all include the west coasts’ top team #2 UCLA (6-1), #3 OSU behind man-child Greg Oden (8-1), and #4 Wisconsin (10-1) behind their defense which has given up 70+ points only three times all season.
