NHL Odds: Compare Betting Prices, Fixtures and Stanley Cup Futures

Best NHL odds on upcoming fixtures

These are the top moneyline prices we currently see across tracked books for the next NHL fixtures. Odds move, so treat these as a snapshot for line-shopping rather than a live feed.

• Carolina Hurricanes 1.81 (BetRivers) vs Florida Panthers 2.10 (DraftKings)
• Toronto Maple Leafs 1.91 (BetMGM) vs Montréal Canadiens 1.95 (DraftKings)
• Boston Bruins 1.85 (FanDuel) vs New York Rangers 2.15 (Caesars)
• Edmonton Oilers 1.38 (DraftKings) vs Vancouver Canucks 3.45 (BetRivers)
• Vegas Golden Knights 1.40 (DraftKings) vs Chicago Blackhawks 3.20 (FanDuel)
• Philadelphia Flyers 1.80 (Caesars) vs Pittsburgh Penguins 2.14 (DraftKings)
• Colorado Avalanche 1.60 (BetRivers) vs Los Angeles Kings 2.65 (Caesars)
• Columbus Blue Jackets 2.00 (Caesars) vs Buffalo Sabres 1.91 (DraftKings)
• New Jersey Devils 1.70 vs Philadelphia Flyers 2.20 (both DraftKings)
• New York Rangers 2.20 vs Tampa Bay Lightning 1.70 (both DraftKings)

Notice how the best price on each side often sits at a different book. On the Leafs–Canadiens matchup, BetMGM leads the home side while DraftKings leads the away side — the gap between having an account at one book versus two is real money over a full season.

Stanley Cup outright odds

Outright (futures) markets price who lifts the Stanley Cup at season's end. Longer prices mean a longer shot; the number of books quoting each pick is shown so you can judge how firm the market is. Best prices we track:

• Florida Panthers 7.69 (Pinnacle, 4 books)
• Carolina Hurricanes 9.00 (BetMGM, 4 books)
• Colorado Avalanche 9.50 (BetRivers, 4 books)
• Edmonton Oilers 11.0 (FanDuel, 4 books)
• Vegas Golden Knights 13.0 (FanDuel, 4 books)
• Tampa Bay Lightning 14.0 (FanDuel, 4 books)
• Minnesota Wild 16.0 (BetRivers, 4 books)
• Dallas Stars 18.0 (BetMGM, 4 books)
• Washington Capitals 18.0 (BetMGM, 4 books)
• Montréal Canadiens 26.0 (FanDuel, 4 books)

The Panthers sit as NHL favourites here at 7.69. For Canadian bettors, the two domestic long shots stand out: Edmonton at 11.0 and Montréal at 26.0. Futures tie up your stake for months, so the price you lock matters — a Cup pick at 11.0 versus 10.0 is a 10% difference on the same bet. See more long-range markets on our futures odds page.

Which sportsbook prices NHL best

We sample prices across books and track two useful numbers: best-price share (how often a book posts the top available price) and average margin (the built-in bookmaker cut — lower is better for you). Hockey-relevant standouts from our sampled data:

• Pinnacle — 3.12% average margin, best price on 53.4% of sampled selections. The sharpest pricing here by a clear margin, and it carries the highest odds rating in our data (9.4). Trade-off: thin feature set (Live Betting and Fast Payout only), a weaker app rating (7.6) and no bet builder.
• DraftKings — 4.21% margin, best price on 54.5% of sampled selections, and it holds the top price on several fixtures above. Strong app (9.2) and Same Game Parlay support.
• FanDuel — 4.06% margin, best price on 23.5% sampled. Very strong app (9.3) and live streaming.
• BetMGM — 4.69% margin, leads several futures prices above.
• Caesars — 5.35% margin, best price on 36.7% sampled across a large 784-selection sample.

These figures are cross-sport samples, not NHL-only lab tests, so read them as a guide to how each book generally prices, not a guarantee on a specific puck line. The practical takeaway: for raw price on hockey, Pinnacle and DraftKings are the value plays; for app quality plus competitive pricing, FanDuel and DraftKings are the balance picks.

How to bet NHL odds in Canada

NHL betting in Canada runs through provincially regulated books. In Ontario that means AGCO/iGaming Ontario registration — the operators listed here are all iGO-registered. AGCO/iGO regulates Ontario specifically, not the whole country; Alberta, British Columbia and other provinces run their own regimes through provincial lottery corporations and regulators, so which books you can legally use depends on where you live. The minimum age is 19.

Common NHL markets you'll price out:

• Moneyline — straight winner, the prices shown above.
• Puck line — a spread, usually ±1.5 goals.
• Totals (over/under) — combined goals, often set around 6.
• Period betting and player props — goals, shots, points.
• Same Game Parlay — combining legs from one game, offered by DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, BetRivers and theScore Bet.

Every listed book takes Interac and Visa, posts a C$10 minimum deposit and quotes withdrawals in the 0–24h range. bet365 and Betway also support Apple Pay; Sports Interaction adds InstaDebit. For Canadian bettors who want fast turnaround, DraftKings, FanDuel, BetRivers, PointsBet, Betano and LeoVegas list Fast Payout as a feature.

Choosing a book for NHL

Choose Pinnacle if price is everything and you don't care about apps, streaming or bet builders — the 3.12% margin and 9.4 odds rating are the sharpest here. Avoid it if you want a polished mobile experience or Same Game Parlays.

Choose DraftKings or FanDuel if you want a strong app (9.2 and 9.3) plus competitive NHL pricing and live streaming — a sensible all-round default for most Canadian hockey bettors.

Choose bet365 if you rank market coverage (9.6) and live capability (9.4) highest, plus Apple Pay and live streaming; it carries the top licence-safety rating in the list (9.5).

Choose Betano if fast payouts and payments (8.9) matter and you want a bet builder for hockey props.

Choose theScore Bet or Sports Interaction if you prefer a Canadian-built product; note their odds ratings (7.3 and 7.2) sit lower, so line-shop elsewhere before you place. Compare full profiles on our all bookmakers and comparisons pages.
