Rangers bring in Alexander Frolov

Hockey Betting Lines

07/27/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The New York Rangers have agreed to terms with free agent forward Alexander Frolov.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed for the 28-year-old veteran, who spent his first seven NHL seasons with the Los Angeles Kings.

Frolov has twice reached the 30-goal plateau, but last season managed just 19 goals and 32 assists for 51 points in 81 games. The goal total was his lowest since he scored 14 in his rookie season of 2002-03. He added a goal and three assists for four points in six playoff games last spring.

"Alex is a highly skilled player who we feel will play a key role in improving our offense and play in all situations," said Rangers president and general manager Glen Sather. "He is strong competitor and has the ability to play either wing position."

In 536 regular-season games, Frolov has 168 goals and 213 assists for 381 points. His best season was 2006-07 when he tallied 35 goals and 36 assists for 71 points.

The Kings selected the Moscow native with the 20th overall pick of the 2000 NHL Entry Draft.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
