Sedin wins Hart Trophy as league MVP

Hockey Betting Lines

06/23/2010 - Las Vegas, NV (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Vancouver Canucks forward Henrik Sedin took home hockey's top honor, the Hart Memorial Trophy, as the player judged to be the most valuable to his team for the 2009-10 season.

Sedin, part of a tandem with twin brother Daniel, had a career-defining season last year. The 29-year-old native of Ornskoldsvik, Sweden posted 29 goals, 83 assists and 112 points -- far and away career-bests -- in 82 regular-season games.

He followed it up with three goals and 14 points in 12 playoff contests as the Northwest Division-winning Canucks advanced to the Western Conference semifinals.

"Thanks to all the fans in Vancouver, especially those who have supported us over the last 10 years or so," Sedin said when accepting the award. "Thanks to Markus Naslund, Mattias Ohlund and Sami Salo (veteran Swedish teammates) for taking care of us for the first few years. There's no real way I can thank you enough."

Sedin became just the second Swedish-raised player in league history to win the NHL's most prestigious individual award. Peter Forsberg -- also a native of Ornskoldsvik -- was the first when he won in 2003 for the Colorado Avalanche.

Alex Ovechkin, who had won the Ted Lindsay Award as the top NHL player this season as voted by the players association, won the Hart in each of the last two years.

Ovechkin, along with 2007 winner Sidney Crosby of Pittsburgh, were the other two finalists for the honor, which has been given annually since 1924.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
