Montreal Canadiens fans may be having a tough season with their team on the ice, but some may alleviate their stress with some hockey betting and there are a few different types that they may run into while perusing their online sportsbook.

Money Line – The easiest way to wager and one that everyone, from casual fans to experienced players that use price per head systems, can start with. Essentially, you have a favorite (for example, -135) and an underdog (+115), and you would win $100 on a bet of $135, but $115 on a $100 wager.

Puck Line – The puck line is similar to a spread in that a team has to win by a certain amount of goals, but it changes the money line odds to make it so that the favorite has to win by a blowout for you to win, but an underdog just has to keep it close.

Regulation Line – Another spin-off of the money line, this is a game that has to be decided in regulation; if you go to overtime and/or the shootout, you lose.

Totals – This is when you wager on the total amount of goals in a certain game, betting on the over or under. There is also the Grand Salami, which is the total amount of goals that will be scored in all games on a given day in the NHL.

Props/Futures – Props are wagers that don’t have to do with the result of the game, but what will happen with an individual player (will Steven Stamkos score over/under 1.5 goals). Futures are more of a long term online wagering option, such as Stanley Cup winners.
