06/22/2010 - Sunrise, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Bruins have acquired forwards Nathan Horton and Gregory Campbell from the Florida Panthers in exchange for defenseman Dennis Wideman, the Bruins' first-round pick in 2010 and a third- round selection in 2011.
The Bruins add a consistent scorer in Horton, who has recorded at least 20 in each of the last five seasons. The right winger tallied a career best 31 in 2006-07 and wound up with 62 points in 82 games. He matched his points total again the next year with 27 goals and 35 assists over another full 82-game slate.
The 25-year-old Horton was taken third overall by the Panthers in the 2003 draft and has tallied 142 goals with 153 assists in 422 games since. He notched 20 goals and added 37 assists over 65 games this past season.
Campbell, a centerman, had two goals and 15 assists in 60 games last year. The 26-year-old had also spent his entire pro career in Florida after being selected in the third round in 2002. Campbell is just two years removed from setting career bests in goals (13) and assists (19) in 77 games.
Wideman, 27, just finished up his third full season in Boston and recorded six goals and 24 assists in 76 games with a minus-14 rating. He too set career marks in 2008-09 with 13 goals, 37 assists and a plus-32 rating over 79 games.
In 378 career games, including parts of two seasons with the Blues, Wideman has 46 goals, 119 assists and a minus-12 rating.
The Panthers will get a chance to bolster their roster in the near future with the 15th overall pick in this year's draft, which kicks off Friday from the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch
Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.
Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.
"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP
With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.
There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
