Los Angeles clinches playoff berth
Soccer Betting Lines
06/30/2009 - Carson, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The first-place Los Angeles Sol have become the first team in Women's Professional Soccer to clinch a playoff spot.
The Sol's 4-0 win over the Chicago Red Stars Saturday, combined with the Saint Louis Athletica's 2-1 victory over Sky Blue FC on Sunday, means the Sol have wrapped up one of the league's four available postseason berths.
"Though we are certainly pleased to be the first team in WPS to reach the playoffs, our work here is far from done," Sol General Manager Charlie Naimo said.
The top four teams in the WPS standings at the conclusion of the regular season will advance to the playoffs, which consists of a unique format that heavily rewards the team that finishes atop the regular season table.
The top team during the regular season will become WPS Regular Season Champion and earn an automatic place as host of the WPS Championship.
In the First Round of the playoffs, the No. 4 team in the regular season will face the No. 3 team at No. 3's stadium on Aug. 15. The second place team in the regular season will receive a bye into the Super Semifinal and host the winner of the First Round on Aug. 18-19. The winner of the Super Semifinal will then travel to the top-seeded team for WPS Championship on Aug. 22.

It's less than a month until the NHL hockey betting season opens at MySportsbook.com and preparations are underway for another battle in the race to hoist Lord Stanley's mug in 2007.
As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.
Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.
Always a threat are the Ottawa Senators, with newly acquired goaltender Martin Gerber from the Stanley Cup champion ,Carolina Hurricanes. The Sens are second best in the rankings at a 7-1 bet, and odds makers at this sportsbook are optimistic that the Ottawa squad will fare better than last season's Eastern Conference semi-final upset to the Buffalo Sabres.
Also worth noting are the defending Stanley Cup champs Carolina Hurricanes, a 10-1 bet to repeat. Behind the Canes are the New Jersey Devils, Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres, Philadelphia Flyers, and Anaheim Mighty Ducks all sit at 12-1. In the basement are the Washington Capitals, Chicago Blackhawks, and St. Louis Blues who all have 100-1 odds to win.
