Online Casinos Hockey Fans Can Place Olympic Bets

With sports seasons in full swing, it is no wonder that the 2006 Winter Olympic Games have begun to receive a great deal of attention regarding online casinos hockey fans. Sportsbook, a leading online casinos sports betting site, is already taking odds for this monumental event. Four years have passed since the USA lost the gold medal to Canada in Salt Lake City, and online casinos bettors do not seem to think that the two will battle it out again in next year's Olympic Games. The USA is listed with 8-1 odds, and falls right behind Canada, with 8-5 odds. The Czech Republic is next with 5-2, then Sweden at 7-2, Russia at 6-1 and finally Slovakia at 7-1. According to Peter Childs, odds maker at the online casinos giant, 'The American hockey program is at a bit of a crossroads. After almost two decades of being represented by the greatest crop of players in US history, players like Hull, Roenick, Tkatchuk, Weight, Modano and Richter, there seems to be a gap between the old guard and a new guard that might still be a little too green for a competition of this magnitude.' Peter Laviolette, Head Coach for the Carolina Hurricanes, is looking for great players and amazing talent in order to form his squad. He will have to choose from the 39 NHL players who attended Olympic training camp this past September. The void left by Brett Hull will be difficult to fill, but the coach is seriously considering Zach Parise and Rick DiPietro to be part of the team. Online casinos hockey lovers will surely be anticipating next year's winter games. In the meantime, online casinos bettors will continue to book odds on whom they believe will be the next 2006 Winter Olympic Hockey Champions.
