07/07/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Multiple media outlets are reporting that former San Jose Sharks goaltender Evgeni Nabokov has signed to play in Russia.
TSN.ca is reporting Nabokov signed with SKA St. Petersburg of the Kontinental Hockey League and that the agreement is for six years and $24 million.
A native of Kazakhstan, Nabokov was considered one of the top goaltenders on the free agent market after finishing last season with a 44-16-10 record, 2.43 goals-against average and three shutouts for the Pacific Division champs.
The 34-year-old, who was a ninth-round pick of the Sharks in the 1994 draft, spent all 10 of his NHL seasons with San Jose and was 293-178-37 with 29 ties, a 2.39 GAA and 50 shutouts over that time.
Though a capable and often-times dominant netminder, Nabokov bore the brunt of San Jose's repeated playoff flame-outs in recent seasons. Last season, San Jose managed to reach the conference finals for the first time since 2004, but were wiped out in a four-game sweep by eventual Cup champion Chicago.
In St. Petersburg, Nabokov would join former NHLers Sergei Zubov, Darius Kasparaitis, Alexei Yashin and Sergei Brylin.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
