NHL season markets

Markets on the season as a whole — champion, awards and the races in the table.

How the season works

The regular season runs from October to mid-April with 82 games per team, followed by four best-of-seven playoff rounds for the Stanley Cup in June.

How these markets resolve

Game markets usually settle on the official final score including overtime and the shootout. Check whether a market is a regulation-time market — those settle a tie after 60 minutes differently.

Questions

Does the shootout count in NHL markets?

In the usual moneyline markets, yes: the official winner after overtime and shootout decides. Regulation-time markets are a different question and resolve on the score after 60 minutes.

When are NHL starting goalies confirmed?

Teams usually confirm the starting goalie on the morning of the game or after warm-ups. It is the most price-relevant line-up decision in the sport.
