The home team will always be listed at the bottom unless otherwise stated. Bets on Hockey are made as follows:

 

BY RIGHT: It is when you bet a single selection and in a single game.

 

PARLAY: This bet groups two or more selections in one or more games and where all must win. It is paid according to the following rule: The amount wagered and won on the first selection will be wagered on the next and so on according to the number of selections combined.

 

In case one of them is suspended or a parlay of three or more teams is tied, it is reduced to the next lower number of combinations and if this were to happen in a two-team parlay it would become a right bet.

 

TYPES OF BETS:

 

GAME WINNER (Money Line): You must guess which will be the winner. When betting a team to win, the result will be official after the game is completely finished including overtime and penalties (Shootout) if it is the case. If it is suspended the achievement will be without effect.

 

TOTAL POINTS (High and Low): This is a bet that specifies whether the total of goals scored between the 2 teams in a game will be greater or less than the proposed total.

 

For its result, the 3 periods must end, the extra times and the penalties (Shootout) if they exist, in the latter only 1 goal will be added in favor of the winning team regardless of the number of goals achieved in these penalties.

 

If the game is suspended or the proposal is tied, the achievement is considered without effect.

 

RUN LINE: It consists of adding or subtracting goals to a team to obtain a benefit; To play the favorite, you must subtract the number of goals from the final score obtained by this team, if it is greater than the total reached, the opposite will be the winner and will obtain a better dividend with respect to the Money Line in the calculation of the prize.

 

If you bet on the one who is not a favorite, the profit will be adding these goals to the final score and if it is higher than that of the opposing team, your selection will be the winner.

 

For its result, the 3 periods, the overtime and the penalties (Shootout) must end, if they exist, although these do not affect the result of the bet. If the game is suspended the achievement is considered without effect.

 

Some rules that exist and may vary through your different bookmakers.

Tips for betting on ice hockey

 

Most of the players who bet on ice hockey do so to the NHL, the professional league with the best teams in the United States and Canada, which is undoubtedly the most important in the world. A total of 31 teams contest this competition, divided into two conferences, east and west. They play a total of 82 games in the regular season that ends next Saturday, before the top eight from each conference contest the playoffs for the title. The champion takes the Stanley Cup.

 

The first thing to know when betting on the NHL is that the number of games that are played causes coaches to rotate a lot in the line-ups, also in the goalkeeper position. For this reason, it is important to know who will be the goalkeeper of each team before the game begins, since the differences between starters and substitutes are usually very large.

 

It is also important to know that it is a competition in which equality prevails. It is common for the scores to be very tight and even for there to be draws at the end of regulation time, so it is common for an extra time to be disputed. That equality makes the handicaps in this sport very short.

 

The third most important question is the one referring to statistics: the bookmakers base the odds they offer to the players on the accumulated data of the teams. However, these data can be misleading: if the average of a team is 6 goals in favor but there are many games in which it has scored only one goal, it means that in most of the games it will have exceeded that line. The same happens in many other markets within this sport.

 

Likewise, it is vital to know how each team reacts to the exclusions of the players, since this is a sport in which there are many advantageous situations for both teams. This data can help us establish winning game strategies, especially in live bets.

 

What to bet on ice hockey?

 

Ice hockey matches are played over three periods of 20 minutes each, for a total of 60 minutes of play. With these premises, there are many bets that each bookmaker offers to its users.

 

Match winner

 

It is the most common bet as in most sports and we can find two possibilities: the first is that it only counts in the final result, with possible extensions included, so only two possible results are allowed: team A winner or team winner B. The second possibility is to bet on what will happen in regulation time, that is, in the sixty minutes of the game, for which the three classic results are offered: 1 X 2.

 

Winner of a period

 

A curious market is to bet that a team will win any of the three periods. It is a pick that is usually used to bet on the most modest teams, but that can win one of the three periods. Only with that we would already have a winning bet even if, at the end of the match, the team we are betting on has lost.

 

Total goals

 

It is another of the traditional markets of this sport. Although the average goals are usually between 5 and 8, and the lines are usually very tight, players are attentive to the rotations and previous matches between both teams to be able to find bets with a lot of value. That same market can be done for each period separately.

 

Goals of each team

 

That over / under total goals can be bet both on the total of the match, as in the previous market, but applied only to each team. That is, if the orange team will score more or less than 2.5, 3.5 or 4.5 goals, which are the most common lines. Or also the goals that each team will get in each of the three halves of the game.

 

Handicap

 

As we said, the NHL is a very competitive league and the differences are usually minimal, so the handicaps do not usually exceed 1.5. However, in other leagues where there is greater inequality, it is possible to bet that the teams will achieve more or less advantage over their rivals.

 

Exclusions

 

Exclusions are one of the most important variations in every hockey game and you can bet on different markets. The total number of exclusions that will occur throughout the game, the number of exclusions for each team, which will be the first player excluded or which team will suffer the first exclusion. The offers are very varied.
