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.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds

Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.

MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:

Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)
