Basic strategies for betting on NHL

 

When it comes to betting on any sport, it is good to have a base of information that you can draw from. All sports bettors have high intentions when it comes to a strategy set at the beginning of the season. At the first sign of trouble, those strategies tend to be abandoned and bad habits start to reappear.

 

It's time to go back to the NHL vault to review some betting strategies to know and follow.

 

NHL Money Line Betting Strategy

 

The posted money line for each NHL game is the primary bet for this sport.

 

All you need to do to win is pick the outright winner.

 

Betting on favorites is riskier and less rewarding. The bigger the favorite, the higher the risk. Betting on a team that has a low chance of winning offers a bigger payoff with less risk.

 

Going back to this season's betting trends on an NHL money line bet, the favorites have only won 56.6 percent of the time. This sets the stage for betting on the underdog teams when the showdown on ice is tilted that way.

 

Online money gambling is the type of bet where you can fall below a winning percentage of .500 and still win money. It's not about the amount of underdog bets you've made, it's about the quality. Underdogs playing home are still the best bet with a winning percentage of 44.8.

 

In general, betting on rare equipment on the money line is another viable strategy.

 

Once a team has won two or three matches in a row, it becomes very attractive in its next game. The same could be said for going against losing teams.

 

NHL Total Line Betting Strategy

 

There is tremendous value in betting on NHL total lines.

 

Trying to predict how many goals each team will score can be easier to do than choosing the team that will score the most goals.

 

Teams with high scores will have high total lines when they face each other. However, the concept of an offensive shootout between some of the best sharpshooter in the league often adds up to seven or more goals in total.

 

Defensive-minded teams facing each other will have low playing totals. If the starting goalkeeper of both teams is playing at their best, the incline should always go to the UNDER .

 

Puck lines betting strategy for NHL

 

You will find a number of different tips on how to bet on the spread in puck line hockey. What you should always focus on is the true value of the bets. The puck line balances the value towards the favorite.

 

If you think the underdog can stay within one goal of the favorite, bet on that team on the money line with the most money. The puck line creates an immediate slant towards betting on the favorite.

 

There are quite a few one-goal games in the NHL. What you should be looking for is a mismatch. If you think the favorite should win the game easily and with two or more goals, take the higher value on the puck line rather than betting on a money line that has higher risk.
