How to bet on the Carolina Hurricanes

Online sportsbooks offer many ways to bet on hockey, meaning Carolina Hurricanes bettors have tons of options. Here are some of the more popular ways to bet on the Canes.

Hurricanes moneyline explained

Betting the moneyline means simply placing a wager on a team to win outright. The final margin of victory doesn’t matter. When you look up moneyline bets for a Hurricanes game, they will appear something like this:

  • DET Red Wings +170
  • CAR Hurricanes -205

Those odds indicate how much a winning wager will pay out. When the odds are a negative number, that means that side is the favorite (like Carolina here). Meanwhile, when the odds are a positive number, that indicates the side is the underdog (like Detroit).

If you were to bet on Carolina, those odds of -205 mean you would have to bet $205 in order to win $100. Odds and payouts are proportional, meaning you can bet any amount. If you win, the amount will be calculated according to the size of your wager. For example, if you bet $20 on the Canes here and won, you’d win $9.76.

If you bet on the underdog Detroit side here, the +170 odds mean that if you bet $100 and win, you’ll receive a $170 payout. If you bet $20, you’d win $34.

Hurricanes puck line explained

In hockey, betting on the puck line is the same as making a spread bet in other sports. You are betting on one side to win by a certain goal margin.

Unlike spreads in football or basketball, the puck line is almost always the same: 1.5 goals. That means you are betting on a team to win or lose by at least two goals. Here’s how the puck line might look for that Detroit-Carolina match listed above.

  • DET Red Wings +1.5 (-155)
  • CAR Hurricanes -1.5 (+130)

Since Carolina is the favorite in the game, the puck line necessitates that the Hurricanes must win by two or more goals to cover the spread. Meanwhile, the puck line wager for Detroit means they’ll have to win outright or lose by only one goal.

Notice the odds as well, which get adjusted while the puck line generally stays at +1.5/-1.5. In this game, the sportsbook is saying there’s a greater chance that Detroit will “cover” and either win or lose by one goal (-155) than for Carolina to win by two or more goals (+130).

Hurricanes totals explained

Totals or “over/under” bets are also popular in hockey, and every time the Carolina Hurricanes play, you can place a totals bet if you like.

Hockey is generally a fairly low-scoring sport, so the totals are often low. In that Red Wings-Hurricanes game, the totals might look like this:

“O” means over, and “U” means under. If you bet on the over here, you’re hoping the two teams combined will score seven goals or more. Bet the under, and you’re gunning for a game in which both teams score no more than six goals.

The odds in this example are fairly close. You’ll often see totals odds hovering around the -110 mark, although sometimes, the range between the over and under will be greater than this.

Hurricanes same game parlay examples

Parlays are wagers that combine multiple bets into one. In order to win the overall bet, you need all of the different “legs” to win. A same game parlay (or “SGP”) combines different bets within the same game to create a parlay. These SGP can combine both traditional bets like those described above and various props (described below).

Here’s an example of a same game parlay on a Hurricanes game that combines three wagers:

  • CAR Hurricanes - Moneyline
  • CAR Hurricanes - Moneyline 1st Period
  • Sebastian Aho (CAR) - Anytime Goalscorer (SGP odds +385)

The first bet is a moneyline bet on Carolina to win. The second is a team prop on the Canes to outscore their opponent during the first quarter. Finally, the third bet is an individual prop on Canes center Sebastian Aho to score a goal at any point during the game.

If you place this bet, you’ll need all three of those things to happen. If they do, you’ll get $385 for every $100 you bet. Note that parlays generally have bigger payouts than individual bets, but that’s because they are harder to win.

Hurricanes prop bets explained

Every Hurricanes game offers plenty of chances to place proposition bets, aka “prop bets.” For the most part, prop bets are either team props or individual props, although you can place prop bets on things like whether there will be overtime or whether the total goals scored will be an odd or even number.

Examples of team props include bets on the Hurricanes to win a particular period, over/under bets on the Hurricanes’ total goals, whether Carolina will score first, and so on. Individual props generally concern players’ statistical performances, such as betting on a player’s point or assist total, whether he will score a goal, or how many shots on goal he’ll take.

Betting on the Herricanes live and in game

Online sportsbooks offer the chance to bet on games after they begin with live betting. Once the action gets underway, you can still place a lot of the same bets that were available before the game, like moneyline, puck line, and totals bets. But with in-game betting, the odds will change to reflect how the game is playing out.

Often, the odds for these bets will change dramatically after someone scores a goal.

Live betting on the Carolina Hurricanes might also include prop bets, such as on the next goal scored. Live parlays, including same game parlays, can arise as well.

Hurricanes futures bets

Futures offer another fun way to bet on the Hurricanes. Scroll up to see several examples of Hurricanes futures, where you are placing a wager on an outcome that won’t be settled until a future date.

As shown, you can bet on the Hurricanes to win the Stanley Cup, the Prince of Wales Trophy as Eastern Conference champ, or the Metropolitan Division. You can also bet on Carolina to finish over or under a certain win total for the year. You can place futures bets on individual players, too, including on whether they’ll win the Hart Memorial Trophy as the league’s MVP or other awards.
