Sabres coach Ruff set to return

Hockey Betting Lines

02/14/2012 - Buffalo, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Buffalo Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff will return to his normal spot behind the bench on Tuesday night against the New Jersey Devils.

Ruff had been watching his team from the press box since suffering three broken ribs during last Monday's practice. Assistant coach James Patrick guided the team to a 2-1-0 record during Ruff's absence.

On Tuesday morning, Ruff said that he'll wear a "flak jacket-type of design" to protect his midsection. Assistant coaches Patrick and Teppo Numminen will stay close to Ruff on the bench.

"I'm going to have to be careful," Ruff said. "I won't be jumping up on top of the bench. I've got to stay away from some quick movements. Even yelling, I've had some issues when I've even tried to cough. The tough part is maybe just to stay calm when otherwise you'd get pretty excited."

Ruff also said that defenseman Christian Ehrhoff may miss Tuesday's game due to an illness.

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.
