07/06/2010 - St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The St. Louis Blues have signed goaltender Jaroslav Halak to a four-year contract.
Halak was acquired from the Canadiens on June 17 in a trade that sent forwards Lars Eller and Ian Schultz to Montreal.
"Jaroslav will be a big help for our organization moving forward," said Blues general manager Doug Armstrong. "He has made a great commitment to the Blues as he enters the prime of his career."
The 25-year-old Halak was 26-13-5 with a 2.40 goals-against average and five shutouts during the regular season for the Habs. He ranked ninth in the NHL in GAA and his .940 save percentage was fourth-best in the league.
Halak split playing time during the regular season with Carey Price, but starred in the playoffs this spring. He helped Montreal reach the Eastern Conference finals, a run that included Game 7 road victories over Washington, which had the best record in the league, and Pittsburgh, which had been the defending Stanley Cup champs.
The Canadiens lost to the Flyers in five games in the conference finals, leaving Halak's playoff record at 9-9 with a 2.55 GAA.
"I've been looking forward to playing in St. Louis ever since the trade was announced," said Halak. "I believe in my abilities and hope to do some good things for the Blues."
Halak has racked up a 56-34-7 record with a 2.62 GAA and nine shutouts in 101 career games since breaking into the NHL in 2006.

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.
