Blackhawks sign Madden away from New JerseyHockey Betting Lines07/02/2009 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Blackhawks have signed center John Madden to a one-year contract. Financial terms of the deal for the long-time New Jersey Devils defensive standout were not disclosed, but the Newark Star-Ledger had reported it to be worth $2.75 million. Madden had spent his entire career with the Devils, helping the club to a pair of Stanley Cup titles. He posted seven goals and 16 assists in 76 games last season, but is best known for his ability to shut down top opposing centers. The 36-year-old veteran won the Selke Trophy as the league's top defensive forward in 2001 and was a finalist for the honor in 2003, 2004 and 2008. He also holds the Devils franchise record with 17 short-handed goals. "John is a proven winner and one of the premier defensive forwards in the game who also has the talent to contribute with timely offense as well," said Blackhawks general manager Dale Tallon. "Adding his experience to our team is an important piece to the puzzle." Madden notched a career-best 43 points during the 2007-08 campaign and owns career totals of 140 goals, 157 assists and 297 points over 712 regular-season games. He has chipped in 20 goals and 21 assists for 41 points in 112 playoff tilts.

Super Bowl XLIII betting odds at online bookmaker MySportsbook.com have the Steelers listed as an early -6.5 against the spread favorite.Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds 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) Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line) Matt Foust won both of his conference championship plays yesterday and he is ready to serve up plenty of Super Bowl action.
