NHL Markets We Cover
Shots on goal (SOG), points, goals, and assists. The model factors in defensive matchups, goalie splits, and recent team form.
NHL Betting Tips
- Shots on goal is the most consistent NHL prop market — high-volume shooters produce steady SOG numbers game to game
- Goalie matchups matter: a team facing a backup goalie will generate more high-danger chances and goals
- Back-to-back games in hockey cause measurable performance drops — check if either team is on the second night of a back-to-back
- Home ice advantage is real in hockey — home teams get the last change, which impacts matchup lines
