Hockey Odds at BetMGM
BetMGM is the best online sportsbook for placing hockey bets. NHL odds are available year-round, including spreads, moneylines, futures, and much more.
Hockey fans can bet on the NHL and other major hockey leagues at BetMGM.
Hockey Spreads
A hockey spread is a way of showing which team is favoured. The spread is often referred to as the “puck line.”
The favoured team will usually be listed as -1.5. The underdogs will be +1.5.
If the Toronto Maple Leafs are -1.5 against the Edmonton Oilers, they would need to win the game by two goals or more for a bet to pay out. A wager on the Oilers +1.5 would win if Edmonton won the game or lost by a single goal.
Hockey Moneylines
A moneyline is the simplest bet that can be placed on a hockey game. This is a wager on a team to win the game.
The favourites will have shorter odds than the underdog on the moneyline.
For instance, the Vancouver Canucks might be -150 to beat the Calgary Flames. A $10 bet on the Canucks would have a potential payout of $16.67.
If the Flames were +135 to win the game, there would be a possible return of $23.50 on a $10 bet.
Hockey Totals
Hockey totals are a way to wager on the number of goals in a game. The BetMGM sportsbook will set a line, and bettors can wager on whether there will be over or under that number of goals.
For example, if the Ottawa Senators are facing the Winnipeg Jets, and the line is set at 6.5, bettors would wager on over or under this number.
A wager on under 6.5 goals would require the teams to combine for six or fewer goals. A bet on the over needs seven or more goals in the game.
Hockey Prop Bets
Hockey prop bets include game, team, and player props at the BetMGM online sportsbook.
Game props are about the overall game, including wagers like which team will win the first quarter. Team totals are an example of a team prop.
Player props are generally focused on a statistical category. For instance, bettors can wager on whether Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl will score a goal or how many points they will record in a game.
Hockey Parlays
Multiple selections are combined into a single wager to create a parlay.
The odds increase with each additional selection, as every pick needs to win for the parlay to pay out.
Different games and markets can be put together to create a hockey parlay. Bettors could take the Montreal Canadiens to cover the spread, the Toronto Maple Leafs on the moneyline, and a player prop to create their parlay.
Hockey Live Betting
The BetMGM sportsbook has live odds for every NHL game.
Bettors will see odds for the moneyline, spread, total, and other markets move throughout each game, depending on how the game goes.
Hockey Futures Betting
Hockey futures betting includes team and player markets. BetMGM has Stanley Cup odds available year-round, with prices consistently being adjusted.
Futures markets for the NHL include the Hart Trophy and team win totals. Bettors will also find futures for various hockey leagues around the world.
Futures odds are available on college hockey, the PWHL, and the World Championships, too.
