09/06/2007 - Grand Forks, ND (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The University of North Dakota announced Wednesday the five-year contract extension for men's hockey coach Dave Hakstol, and extended associate head coach Cary Eades and assistant coach Dane Jackson.

"This is an excellent package for UND Athletics and the hockey program," said Tom Buning, North Dakota athletic director. "We've been working on this package for a while, the administration put on the finishing touches."

Hakstol, who has taken North Dakota to three straight Frozen Fours in his three years as head coach, will earn a base salary of $210,000 per year, with added incentives of up to 25 percent of that number.

"I am happy that this package recognizes our entire coaching staff. It provides stability for our coaching team and allows us the opportunity to continue to work together in what we consider the best place in hockey. We can continue to concentrate on what is important; developing young men and winning hockey games," said Hakstol.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.
