Arnold's OT strike gives BC Beanpot title

Chockey Betting Lines

02/13/2012 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bill Arnold's tally with 6.4 seconds remaining in overtime sent Boston College to a 3-2 victory over Boston University to claim the championship of the 60th annual Beanpot at TD Garden.

Arnold accepted a Steven Whitney pass and ripped a shot high over the glove of Kieran Millan from just below the right circle for the winner.

Pat Mullane and Chris Kreider each lit the lamp for the Eagles, who took home their third straight crown for the first time since winning three years in a row from 1963-65.

Freshman Johnny Gaudreau, who scored twice against Northeastern in the semifinals and picked up an assist on Monday, was voted the tournament's most outstanding player.

Parker Milner stopped 32-of-34 shots as BC claimed its 17th title in school history.

Garrett Noonan potted both scores for the Terriers, who haven't endured a three-year Beanpot drought since 1983-85. Millan was the hard-luck loser despite making 44 saves.

Mullane put the Eagles up just shy of the nine-minute mark of the first period, beating Millan from the left wing while shorthanded.

Boston University hit the scoreboard when Noonan rifled home a shot from the left circle on a power play with 4:49 remaining in the second.

BC was awarded a two-man edge for 23 seconds late in the stanza, and Kreider beat Millan with a high wrister from between the circles with 1:18 to go.

BU then enjoyed a two-man advantage for 1:47 early in the third period, and Noonan tallied off a redirection from the left side for a 2-2 game at 7:12. The Terriers failed to click on the 5-on-4.

In the consolation game, Luke Greiner notched the winner late in the third period as Harvard topped Northeastern, 3-2.

Steve Michalek stopped 24-of-26 shots for the win as the Crimson claimed third place for the second straight season.

The Huskies finished fourth for the first time since 2008.

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.
