How NHL Puck Line Odds Work
American odds show how much you win on a $100 bet. Negative odds (like -150) mean you risk $150 to win $100. Positive odds (like +130) mean you win $130 on a $100 bet. For a complete breakdown, read our guide on what is puck line betting.
Understanding Implied Probability
Implied probability is what the odds suggest about the likelihood of an outcome. It's baked into the odds by sportsbooks. Here's the key insight: if you believe the true probability exceeds the implied probability, you may have a value bet.
EXAMPLE
If a team is -150 on the puck line, implied probability is 60%. If your analysis suggests they cover 65% of the time, the bet may have positive expected value.
Calculating Expected Value for NHL Puck Lines
Expected value (EV) tells you whether a bet is profitable long-term. Use this calculator to find implied probability, then compare it to your estimated true probability to determine if the bet has value. Learn more about EV in our advanced puck line strategy guide.
