08/24/2010 - Chicago, IL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Chicago Blackhawks officially brought in free-agent forward Fernando Pisani, signing him to a one-year deal on Tuesday.
Terms of the contract were not released, but TSN of Canada reported last Wednesday that the deal is worth $500,000.
A native of Edmonton, Pisani spent his entire seven-year career with the Oilers. Last season, he was limited to 40 games and tallied four goals with eight points and was a minus-16.
Since breaking into the NHL in 2002, the Providence College product has compiled 80 goals and 153 points in 402 regular-season games.
The 33-year-old's breakthrough came in the 2006 playoffs, when the Oilers dropped a seven-game Stanley Cup Final to Carolina. The defensive specialist tallied 14 goals and 18 points in 24 postseason tilts, and kept Edmonton's title hopes alive with a short-handed, breakaway game-winning goal in overtime of Game 5 in that series.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
