    Correlated parlays in NHL

    Hello everyone. Do correlated parlays exist in the NHL? If you found a book (which I did) that that lets you parlay pucklines with totals do you have an edge? It wouldnt be profitable to just parlay every dog with the under or fav with the over would it?

    Sure they exist. A couple of examples are Wash/Over and Nashville/Under. You would have an edge if you bet PL with the correlated total, but you run the chance of getting booted fast too.

    Why are those two games examples of a correlated parlay?

    Because if Washington wins, good chance its an over, and Nashville wins playing defense.

    if you did the PL with the total, it could be flagged, once you get over a percentage of possibility.

    If I remember correctly, Sportsbook.com used to allow it. But doing correlated bets there puts you at risk of fund confiscation.

    They will wait till you win and try to cash out. Then they will confiscate your funds and show you the door.

    Just not worth it!
