NHL Puck Line Betting
The lesser known type of NHL betting is called puck line betting, and is very similar to MLB run line betting. The team which is favored is given a 1.5 “spread” in which they must cover in order to win the puck line bet. A bet on the favored team means they must win by 2 or more goals in order for the bet to win.
In this screenshot you will see the puck line (referred to as the spread at this betting site). Because Detroit is the home team they are given the -1.5 puck line with large +270 odds. If you bet on Detroit on the puck line you would be betting on them to win by 2 or more goals. If they did you would be winning $270 for every $100 bet.
Puck line betting is a little tougher to understand, but I’m sure you’ve got it figured out now. This is a good way to bet on a team that is heavily favored that you think will win by a few goals.
