How to bet for NHL?
There are several types of NHL sports bets that you can wager on. Here are only a few of the examples:
- Grand Salami
Grand salami betting is exclusive to NHL and MLB or Major League Baseball. It is similar to over/under or total bets. However, instead of wagering on whether the “grand salami” is higher/ lower than the total of the teams’ scores, you have to predict if it is higher/lower than the sum of all the scores achieved during an entire portion of the season.
- Point spread
When talking about spread betting, the team with an advantage is called the favourite, while the other one is the underdog. The oddsmaker will predict by how much the favourite’s score is more than the underdog’s. You can either back up or wager on the favourite (-) or the underdog (+). For example, if the oddsmaker predicts that the point spread is three and you bet on the underdog, the underdog team has to win the game or lose two points or less than the favourite’s score. If you bet in favour of the favourite, the favourite has to win the game with at least four points.
- Moneyline
When betting with Moneyline on NHL, all you have to do is bet on the team you think will win.
- Total bet
The total bet is also known as over/under bet. You have to bet on whether the oddsmaker prediction is higher or lower than the game’s total number of scores.
- Prop bets
Prop bets can be both analytical or just random — the latter is meant to bring more excitement and fun into the game. You can wager on which player will score the goal or how many assists can the other player make.
