Ducks' Selanne will return for another season

Hockey Betting Lines

08/09/2010 - Anaheim, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Teemu Selanne has decided to return for another season with the Anaheim Ducks.

Reports last week indicated that Selanne was set to come back for the 2010-11 campaign, and on Monday the 40-year-old forward made it official with a statement via Twitter on the club's website.

"After thinking about it for the last few months, I've decided to return to play for the Ducks," said Selanne. "I'm excited about the summer additions the team has made. I know this team can win."

Selanne completed his injury-plagued 17th NHL season in 2009-10 with 27 goals and 48 points in 54 games. He has spent the past five seasons with the Ducks and also played for the franchise from February 1996 to March 2001.

Last year, the native of Finland became the third European-born player in league history to top the 600-goal plateau, and also passed Hall-of-Famer and five-time Stanley Cup champion Jari Kurri for most goals scored in a career by a Finnish-born player.

Selanne currently has 606 goals while Kurri retired with 601. Czech native Jaromir Jagr holds the European-born NHL record at 646.

The 10-time NHL All-Star Game participant began his career with the Winnipeg Jets in 1992-93 and scored 76 goals his rookie season. He has also played for San Jose and Colorado during his illustrious career, which features two selections as a First-Team NHL All-Star and two Second-Team choices.

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.
