Exceptional Online Ice Hockey Betting

For Canadians, Ice Hockey is more of a way of life than a sport. Played at every level from amateur to pro, it is the quintessential sport of the nation, and fans follow every move with extreme passion and dedication. A major game can attract thousands of fans and every second is watched intently. Naturally then, Ice Hockey is one of the biggest betting sports in the country. At Spin Sports we bring you the best on-the-ice action in Canada, with the widest range of markets and competitive odds on all the biggest games. 

Ice Hockey is played mostly in North America, Europe, Scandinavia and Russia, and if you are keen on betting at our sportsbook there are plenty of local and overseas leagues and tournaments to put money on. The Russian Kontinental League, Switzerland’s National League, the Swedish Hockey League, the British Elite League, the Slovenian Hockey League and the Ukrainian Hockey League are all featured and major international tournaments open for betting include the World Cup and the World Championships. 

For most Canadian sports betting enthusiasts, the NHL is the league of choice. The National Hockey League (NHL) is the largest and most prestigious in the world, and one that attracts the most bets. Originally formed in Canada, the NHL consists of 31 teams, 24 of which are based in the US, and just 7 in Canada. The NHL season kicks off in October each year, and runs to June. The top teams at the end of the season then compete in the playoffs for a chance to win the Championship, and lift the Stanley Cup.

The most popular bet in Ice Hockey is the Moneyline. This is a simple bet and all you need to do is pick the winner of the game, regardless of the final score. Most games will also have a Puck Line option, which introduces a type of Spread Betting element. If one team is stronger than the other, the Puck Line will even out the odds by adding a 1.5 point margin to the underdog, and taking a 1.5 point margin away from the favourites.

Outright bets are also popular in Ice Hockey where you are predicting the outright winner of a league or tournament instead of a single match. For example, you can place an Outright bet on the winner of the NHL, or the country to win the Hockey World Cup.
