Frequently asked questions

Should you bet with the money in the NHL?

Not on the split alone. Across the last two NHL seasons, backing the side with more money than tickets and fading heavily bet public sides both lost at closing prices, about the size of the bookmaker's margin. Splits are context for your own read, not a pick.

Is 89% of bets on one NHL team unusual?

Less than it sounds. The typical NHL game closes with about 80% of moneyline tickets on one side, usually the favorite, and one game in four clears 87%. A split this one-sided mostly says who the public sees as the favorite.

What are the public betting percentages for New York Islanders vs. San Jose Sharks?

At the latest snapshot, the New York Islanders have 89% of the moneyline bets and 88% of the money. The table above has both teams on the moneyline, puck line and total.

What is the difference between bet percentage and money percentage?

Bet percentage counts tickets: every wager counts once. Money percentage counts dollars, so one $1,000 bet outweighs a hundred $10 ones. Reading the two together shows whether the bigger bettors agree with the crowd.

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 6.5.

Why are NHL moneyline splits so one-sided?

Hockey moneylines usually price a clear favorite, and the public backs favorites. The typical NHL game closes with about 80% of moneyline tickets on one side, and one in four clears 87%. A one-sided split mostly tells you who the favorite is. Fading those heavy public sides has not paid at NHL prices either. See our methodology →
