NHL Odds & Betting Markets
Players are always interested in finding the best NHL odds available, and that is the case for both games and outrights like the NHL Stanley Cup odds.
With OddsPortal, we can guarantee you get the best odds for NHL betting, while you can also find sports betting offers for new customers that allow you to bet on hockey with bonus funds.
Below are some of the most popular markets you will find at leading online bookmakers for NHL games, and you can find plenty more once you click on any of our individual matchups at the top of this page.
Moneyline
The moneyline market is where you bet on the outcome of the game, choosing either the home team or away team to win, including overtime (OT) or shootouts.
Over/Under
You can find lots of different options for the over/under market starting sometimes as low as over or under 1.5 points, up to 9.5 points and maybe more for full-time (inc. OT). This also includes quarters and halves too.
Puck Line (Spread)
The puck line, NHL’s version of the spread, allows you to be on a team to cover a margin. For example, -1.5 means the team must win by 2 goals or more, while +1.5 means they can lose by 1 goal or win outright.
2024/25 NHL Games & Matchups
There are a minimum amount of 82 NHL games per season for each team, including 2024/25, with 41 games played at home for each NHL team, and 41 on the road.
Some NHL teams will play additional games on top of that in the playoffs, with those matches being decided by a series and no set amount of games decided. Look out for the NHL playoffs games when the season reaches that point, with games coming thick and fast.
Eight teams from each conference make it into the NHL postseason, made up of the top three teams from each division plus the next two conference teams with the nighest points from the regular season.
The games in the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs are played between April and June 2025 this year in what is an elimination tournament where teams play against each other in a best-of-seven series, with the winners of the Stanley Cup playoffs being crowned Stanley Cup champion.
If you are also interested in more hockey games than just the NHL, you can find odds comparisons for other top leagues like the SHL and KHL too.
NHL Standings: Track Every Team’s Progress
The NHL standings has both the Eastern and Western Conference first of all, similarly to other American sports like the NFL and NBA, while those divisions are broken into smaller divisions.
You can find the NHL standings and track the progress of your team or all the teams throughout the regular season, while also checking all the previous seasons dating back to 1998/99 should you want to. This includes both regular season and NHL playoff standings for previous seasons, and when the 2024/25 season reaches that stage.
Although it might seem the 1998/99 standings and NHL postseason standings from seasons such a long time ago might not be useful, it can help understand who has performed well once they reached the playoffs over the years, or generally how teams perform year on year.
In more recent seasons, and especially for 2024/25 when the NHL season has had enough games for a larger sample size to understand the odds changes and current value, you can use the standings to check form both home and away and over a specific amount of games.
Check out the NHL standings today and use our historical data to enhance your betting experience and give yourself the best chance of winning.
