An ice hockey match lasts an hour and is divided into three 20-minute periods. Whether on the ice or online, you are sure of winning something. For instance, BitStarz bonus gives you a head start to win without putting in any of your money. Here is a list of the most popular ice hockey bets for your consideration.

Outright Bet

An outright bet is when you bet on a particular team to win a specific competition or match. In an ice hockey season, there are multiple outright betting options that you can wager on. Some are international like Hockey World Championship, NHL, Kontinental Hockey League, Swedish Hockey League and the American Hockey League.

Match Result Bet

In this bet, you select the team you believe will win a hockey game, but with the caveat that victory comes within the regulation time of sixty minutes. If the game is tied after the regulation time, even if the team you originally selected to win in regulation time goes ahead to win the match in overtime, you still lose your bet.

Match Result (Including Overtime)

In this bet, you bet on the team you believe will carry the day, whether the victory is earned during the regulation time or overtime.

Puck Line Handicaps

In this bet, a point spread is applied to the favourite team and the underdog in a game. The underdog will receive a +1.5 goal puck line handicap, which means that they must not lose by two or more goals for you to win. The favourite will receive a -1.5 goal puck line handicap; they must win by at least 2 goals.

Correct Score

With this bet, you can either bet on what you think will be the correct score after the game, or if you believe the game will be tied after the end of regulation time, you can also bet on that scoreline.
