I watch NFL, NBA and some MLB. I don't know anything about hockey nor its players. Few years ago i lost a ton of money betting baseball by laying heavy chalk on games and worst of all chasing bets. I use to bet really public plays etc and just went large on them and lost a bunch.
What intrigues me about NHL like MLB is you are betting mostly on the moneyline unlike nfl or nba where you bet on the spread where the juice is normally 10 percent max. I am wondering, would it be a disaster plan betting on underdogs or favorites on the puckline with plus money? But i won't just blindly bet an underdog. I would bet the underdog if say the public is getting lot of love. Also, i notice that many -225 favorites on the ML in hockey gets you at around +115 to +130 on the puckline. Is there a reason why Puckline prices seem to be higher than baseball prices? Also, i find it weird how a -167 ML favorite is around +170 on the puckline when usually its +120 or so on the RL in baseball.
