Pair of Hockey East teams highlight 2009 Frozen Four
Chockey Betting Lines
03/29/2009 -
Washington, DC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Boston University and the University of
Vermont, both from Hockey East, highlight the final four schools in the NCAA
men's ice hockey tournament, set for April 9-11 at Verizon Center in
Washington, DC.
The Terriers won the Hockey East regular season and playoff titles, finishing
the year as the top-ranked school in the nation, garnering the overall top
seed for the tourney. BU gained its first Frozen Four berth since 1997 by
routing Ohio State, 8-3, on Saturday and conference-rival New Hampshire on
Sunday by a 2-1 count to take the Northeast region.
Vermont, which finished fourth in the stacked conference, captured the East
region with victories over former ECAC foe Yale on Friday, then a disputed 3-2
double-overtime triumph Saturday against Air Force.
The Miami-Ohio RedHawks are the lone Central Collegiate Hockey Association
team in the field, gaining the semifinals after toppling top-seed Denver, then
Minnesota-Duluth in the West region on Friday and Saturday.
Bemidji State, from College Hockey America, rounds out the field after taking
the Midwest region following a 4-1 triumph over Cornell on Sunday to reach its
first Frozen Four in school history. The Beavers, which were the fourth seed
in the grouping, also dispatched regional top-seed Notre Dame on Saturday to
become the first team from outside the traditional four powerhouse conferences
to reach the national semis.
For the semifinal round on Thursday, April 9, Boston University squares off
against Vermont and Bemidji State looks to continue its run by facing Miami-
Ohio.
The winner of both will meet on Saturday, April 11, for the national
championship. Boston College took home the 2008 title, topping Notre
Dame.

Eastern Conference Playoff Betting Trends
We all know by now that the “public” loves to put their money on the FAVORITES and the OVERS. Just by taking a quick glance at Sportsbook.com’s “Betting Trends” it appears as is this tendency will continue as far as the Eastern Conference games are concerned. For the inaugural games of the first round, 69% of the early money is on Toronto -4.5; 59% of bettors prefer Chicago -4.5; 84% are backing Detroit -9; and 56% think Cleveland -11.5 is the way to go. As far as TOTALS are concerned, the only UNDER the “public” is backing is the Cleveland/ Washington game in which 83% are pounding the UNDER (190). Remember, there is no better way to predict a possible line change than by monitoring MySportsbook.com’s “Betting Trends”. By determining who the “public” is backing, you can get the most ideal line for your bet. For example, if you are siding with the public you better place your bet before the line moves in the wrong direction. On the other side of the coin, if you prefer the team that the “public” is betting against; you might be able to get and extra ½ or even more by placing your bet a bit later. Under the “Betting Trends” section, Sportsbook.com also provides plenty of statistical data and trends in order for the bettor to make the most informed pick.
