I don’t know 100%, though I’ve been led to believe that Edmonton may be one of the teams on his initial list. Buffalo suffered a 6-5 overtime loss in Colorado last time out behind Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. After a three-game win streak, the Sabres are in their past two outings. The over has been most impressive, going in the previous five outings, while going in the past 13 contests. In six of the past eight meetings, including the playoffs, the underdog has cashed. The Maple Leafs swept a home-and-home with the New York Islanders on both sides of the New Year holiday.
Unlike the game line on an NHL lines sheet, the 60 Minute Line bets on which team will win at the end of three periods (regulation time, not including overtime). Also called a three-way bet, the 60 minute bet provides better odds than a moneyline bet because players can bet on a winning team at 60 minutes, or they can bet on a tie result. In between his stints on IR, the captain has been relatively productive though not to the level he’s accustomed to. Matthews has 11 goals and 12 assists in 24 games so far this season, good for fourth on the team in scoring despite being out for 15 games already.

As with most sports, points and goals largely shape a player’s performance so you can bet on either of these in the NHL, as well as things like assists, shots, or even saves from a goaltender. There are countless ways to get involved in an NHL match with Player Prop Bets. Check out some of our favorites from tonight’s games on our NHL Prop Bets page. NHL Spread betting is known as the Puck Line when dealing with NHL-specific betting markets. It is most similar to the MLB run line, where the favorite will be given typically a – 1.5 puck line and hlwebcast the underdog a +1.5 puck line, with the odds, rather than the lines changing as they do in the NFL or NBA.
Bennett laid a similar punch to the face to Boston Bruins captain Brad Marchand during the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs last season. The league did not discipline Bennett for his hit against Marchand. While the Panthers were ahead by a goal in the dying minutes of the game, Bennett went for a regular body check on O’Connor behind the Penguins’ net. As Bennett made body contact with O’Connor, he also landed a sucker punch to O’Connor’s face. Sam Bennett is no stranger to playing with some edge, but the NHL handed a fine to the Florida Panthers veteran forward. Late in their shootout win over the Pittsburgh Penguins, Bennett was assessed a two-minute minor penalty for roughing against Drew O’Connor.

Appleton didn’t play in last night’s contest against the Nashville Predators.

From 1942 to 1967, the NHL had only six teams, collectively nicknamed the “Original Six”. The league added six new teams to double its size as a result of the 1967 NHL expansion, then increased to 18 teams by 1974, and to 21 teams due to the 1979 NHL expansion. It added its 31st and 32nd teams in 2017 and 2021, respectively. Salt Lake City was awarded an expansion franchise in 2024 as it acquired the hockey assets of the Arizona Coyotes, nhlwebcats which were deactivated, thus maintaining the total number of teams at 32.
