07/27/2010 - Los Angeles, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Kings have agreed to terms with left wing Alexei Ponikarovsky on a contract for the next season.
Ponikarovsky had spent his entire NHL career with the Maple Leafs before being dealt to Pittsburgh late last year in the midst of his ninth season. He combined to score 21 goals and added 29 assists in 77 games.
The 30-year-old native of the Ukraine has netted 20 or more goals four times and had his best season in 2008-09 when he compiled 23 goals and 38 assists for 61 points -- each career bests.
Drafted in the fourth round in 1998 by Toronto, Ponikarovsky has amassed 116 goals and 150 assists over 493 career regular-season games. He's added nine points in 34 playoff tilts, including five in 11 games for the Pens last year.
The club made the move for Ponikarovsky just hours after the Kings saw longtime left winger Alexander Frolov sign with the Rangers.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
