What is the difference between bet percentage and money percentage?

Does the public bet the over in NHL games?

Almost always. Over the last two seasons, 65% or more of total bets landed on the over in about 94% of NHL games. On this game the public side of the total is the Over 5.5.

When do these NHL betting splits update?

Through the day on game days, from publicly reported sportsbook handle on a sub-hourly cadence, until puck drop. The page shows the latest snapshot each time it loads.

Are these splits from one sportsbook?

No. They reflect publicly reported sportsbook handle, aggregated, rather than a single book's customers. Individual books can differ, especially early in the day when few bets are in.

What's a meaningful bet/money split?

The gap between a side's share of tickets and its share of dollars is the number to watch. About a quarter of NHL games close with the two within 4 points, the typical game sits near 11, and one in ten clears 36. A small gap means big and small bettors see the game the same way.
