NHL Picks

The NHL is the least wagered on league of the major American sports in both volume per game and through the course of the season. And while that may not be good for the business of sports betting advice, it is good for you, the bettor. You see, the less a game is bet the fewer opinions go into the line, the less accurate it will be, and the less the line is likely to change from the NHL opener. It's the same reason why hockey has lower limits when compared to say, basketball, football and even baseball. The hockey line has not been beaten and battered into shape. The sportsbooks don't make as much money on NHL betting because the volume is low. It's actually very possible the house will lose money on many games in a night, unlike NBA betting where it is nearly impossible to not be profitable if the sportsbook is booking for balanced action. But, sportsbooks have to offer NHL. They can't skip one of the big North American leagues. Canada may invade Vegas! But, that means opportunity for Doc's Sports to attack these raw lines and give you winning NHL plays!

Get your NHL Picks Today, and Everyday!

Doc's offers expert NHL picks today and every day of the hockey season! There are indeed nights when hockey isn't the most exciting thing on. In fact, there are many games that aren't televised nationally. That is a huge advantage for puckheads who are either at the game, have people at the game reporting back, or are viewing them on a league pass stream. To put it bluntly, the less interesting a game is to the general public the more interesting the lines are to NHL handicappers at Doc Sports. At Doc's we know don't give out a hockey pick because some of our bettors are hockey fans. We give out hockey picks because we need to make our clients money, and the NHL is one of the most lucrative sports to build your bankroll. So even if you don't like watching the NHL do yourself and your bankroll a favor and start betting it with help of Doc's NHL experts on your side today.

Free NHL Money Line & Puck Line Picks

Unlike football, most NHL bettors are not going to make their hockey picks against the spread. There is indeed opportunity to bet the puck line and gain an advantage but we will primarily be betting teams to win straight up, also known as the money line.

As with all moneylines, Sportsbooks give each NHL team a return-on-investment payout. That means if you risk $100 on an underdog you may see your NHL selection return a much larger $165. Of course that also means that betting on a heavy hockey favorite, will bring a much smaller return than what you risked. So at Doc's we have to look at each play and ask ourselves, If we make this hockey bet 100 times, do we expect to come out well ahead? Many 'pro' NHL handicappers try to find that one pick on a marquee game that people will buy into. If they can find a play on teams from big cities, the audience will be bigger. That is selling out and not how you become a winning NHL bettor long term! If a Doc's handicapper has reason to believe Tampa Bay is more than at least one goal better, our free NHL pick against the puck line would be to take Tampa Bay -1.5 +150. This is how all bets on the spread AKA puck line work. But again, at Doc's the majority of our NHL selections are against the moneyline on games with odds never higher than -150 with our top plays. However, there can also be outstanding value on betting NHL totals.

NHL Total Predictions

The pace of the game, as well as which games have unique matchups, is a key factor when handicapping hockey games. When pace and matchup formation is an especially strong signal, it may dictate a pick on the over/under. An NHL over/under pick is another way of referring to a prediction on an NHL game goal total. NHL total lines are usually between 5 and 6.5 goals. This means there are many pushes AKA ties with NHL total bets. The way to win betting NHL totals is by getting these picks in at the best possible price. Similar to the run line each of the over and under have a varying price depending on the odds of each occurring. You can also almost always anticipate the empty net goal since teams will pull their goalie the final two minutes of the game when they are down 1 or 2 goals which benefits the over in certain situations. Also when teams are tied late in the game they start playing for the OT point so you can expect them not to take too many chances which could also affect the total in close games. At Doc's we provide NHL expert picks intended to capitalize on where there is a pricing advantage. We also provide free hockey total selections that are intended to help bettors with their hockey handicapping legwork.

NHL Parlay Picks

Parlay picks are considered degenerate bets usually placed by football fans. Parlaying NBA games often is a sucker bet and done without getting good prices or the best of key numbers. Hockey parlays are perhaps the easiest to gain an advantage. It is up there with baseball and may even be better in terms of capitalizing on good picks but more importantly, good pricing. Let's say you firmly believe a matchup is going to go a certain way. The game is not going to play out as the public expects because of the way a goalie handles this teams scoring threats! You can parlay the under and the underdog based on the perceived value. More importantly, if your sportsbook has a great price on the puck line as well as the total, or even a puck line price on another game, the payout can make this type of play advantageous over the long term. At Doc's our experts will offer a free hockey parlay pick in rare cases. It is not common because we need to find value for our customers on both lines before these markets change.

NHL Playoff Predictions

Once the regular season is over the NHL tends to pick up a lot of square action especially in large markets. Playoff hockey is all about how hot the goalies are since one hot goal tender can win a series for a mediocre team and this happens every single year so make sure you study up on the goalies. The fans often drive the prices as their teams take part in the playoffs. Bettors have much more time to make their NHL playoff picks as teams travel to each other's arenas and rest between series. Making successful Hockey playoff predictions is as much about when you bet as it is who you bet on. A series might not start for days. That means an NHL moneyline will move especially as the public bets closer to the action. If we see value in a playoff prediction it will rely heavily on getting the line we are quoting in our NHL pick. Getting the best price on your hockey picks versus the average price is the difference between having to hit 60% to earn or being profitable hitting as low as 50%. At Doc's we help you win, and win by betting smart.
