Free NHL Moneyline Picks

All you need to do with NHL moneyline picks is to bet on who wins. The sportsbook will set the odds on what side is likeliest to win.

As with all moneyline odds, the team with the minus (-) is the favorite while the side with the plus (+) is the underdog. 

Free NHL Puckline Picks

The puckline is the NHL's version of the spread. But unlike the NFL or the NBA, the NHL spread doesn't typically change from 1.5. 

The favorite would need to win by at least two goals to win. The dog could lose by a single goal and still win on the spread.

Total Goals NHL Picks: OVER/UNDER

With a total bet you're wagering on the total number of goals scored by most teams. You'll typically get similar odds for the total as the spread. But consider that these are what can be considered "neutral" bets because you aren't backing any single side. 

NHL Picks and Parlays

A parlay allows you to pull multiple bets into a single ticket. You can put moneyline, puckline and totals bets on the same ticket.

Depending on the book you can combine multiple bets from a single game (single-game parlay). Make sure to check with your sportsbook to see if you can or can't create single-game parlays.

NHL Player Props

Props (short for proposition), are bets that are centered around a player's performance during the game. 

You'll find prop markets for goals, points, shots and even blocked shots. For goalies, you'll find props on how many shots they'll face and how many saves they'll make.

NHL Futures Picks

Futures are bets on events that aren't to happen for a while. For the NHL that could mean betting on a team's Stanley Cup odds, Eastern Conference or Western Conference odds, or what player might win one of the various NHL awards.

NHL Consensus Picks

We gather data from everywhere to show you where the public is betting. Are they backing the Montreal Canadiens to win at home or are they betting on the travelling Toronto Maple Leafs?

NHL Picks: Stanley Cup Betting

All 32 NHL teams have their eye on the prize at the end of the year, and that's the Stanley Cup. You can do the same by betting on who will win hockey's ultimate prize.

Because hockey is such a random sport and it has the toughest playoffs, the odds of winning the 130-year-old trophy always have a ton of value.

NHL Draft Picks

The Stanley Cup goes to the best team in the NHL. At the bottom end of the NHL, the worst team receives the best odds to draft first overall. You can see how we track the odds for who drafts first and who they might select.

Stanley Cup Playoff Picks

Think a team on the bubble of the playoff picture will make the postseason? How about a team that's in the playoff picture falling out? You can bet on both and we've got you covered with the odds for all 32 teams.
