Michigan State topples BC; captures NCAA championship
Chockey Betting Lines
04/08/2007 -
St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Justin Abdelkader's goal with 18.9 seconds
left in regulation was the game-winner, as Michigan State claimed its third
championship in school history with a 3-1 win over Boston College at Scottrade
Center in St. Louis.
Tim Kennedy had a goal and an assist for the Spartans, who ended the season
with five straight wins. Chris Mueller also tallied and Jeff Lerg stopped 28
shots.
"BC was coming to the net hard all game, but I knew if I made key saves,
we'd have a chance, because we could not play their game," said Lerg. "In the
end, we outplayed them."
Brian Boyle scored the lone goal for the Eagles, who saw their 13-game win
streak snapped in cruel fashion. Cory Schneider stopped 26 shots in the loss,
BC's second consecutive finals defeat.
Michigan State claimed the championship by scoring three times on a passive
Boston College team in the third period.
Kennedy answered to tie the game for Michigan State on a power-play goal at
9:53, breaking away from two BC checkers and scoring low and inside the left
post.
Then, with the clock ticking down towards overtime, Michigan State kept
pressure on in the Eagles' defensive zone. Kennedy broke down the right side
and clanged a shot off the right goalpost. He followed the puck behind the
goal line and emerged from a scrum with the disc and fed in front to
Abdelkader, who slipped the puck by Schneider for a 2-1 lead.
"It was an unbelievable play," Abdelkader said. "I saw the puck go behind the
net, and wanted to find a spot in the slot. I got my stick on it, and it was
fortunate that it went in."
Mueller added an empty-netter with 1.2 seconds to go and the bench erupted as
the Spartans claimed their first title since 1986.
"We knew going into the game, they were a patient team,"said BC forward Joe
Rooney. "They kept five guys low. We got our chances, but didn't get the
bounces we needed. Got TO hand it to their goalie, he played well."
The Spartans, playing out of the CCHA, broke a streak of five consecutive
champions from the WCHA stretching back to Boston College's win in 2001. The
last school from the CCHA to win a title was Michigan, who took the crown in
1998 against Boston College.
Neither team scored in a spirited first period which saw BC outshoot Michigan
State 13-6.
BC had a 5-on-3 advantage with five minutes played in the second, and
capitalized while skating with one extra man as Nathan Gerbe won a battle
along the boards and pushed the puck into the left circle. Brock Bradford
stepped up and ripped a shot from the faceoff dot that hit Boyle's leg and
sailed into the right corner of the net for a 1-0 lead at 6:50.
Michigan State went up by two men midway through the period, but BC held on
without allowing a quality chance. Despite 12 shots in the second, the
Spartans were still unable to solve Schneider.
That would set the stage for a stunning reversal in the final 20 minutes of
the contest.

Stanley Cup betting
New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
