NHL Bet Tips

There are 82 games regular season games for each of the 30 National Hockey League teams, not to mention the playoffs. With so many NHL games lined up, you'll never run out of betting opportunities.

Bets on your favorite NHL teams are based on money lines. The minus (-) shows the favorite while the plus (+) shows the underdog. Whenever there is a minus (-), you lay that amount to win a dollar; where there is a plus (+) you get that amount for every dollar wagered.

For example, the money line reads Buffalo Sabres -140 against Detroit Red Wings +130.

This means that the Sabres are the favorite and you'd have to bet $140 on the Sabres to win $100. If the Sabres win the game, you get your original $140 bet plus your $100 winning for a total payout of $240.

On the other hand, the Red Wings are the underdog and you'd have to bet $100 on the Red Wings to win $130. If the Red Wings win the game, you get your original $100 bet plus your $130 winning for a total payout of $230. It's that simple!
