Do online sports books offer hockey total betting?

Question

I am a big follower of hockey betting news, I want to know do online sports books offer hockey total betting options?

Answer 1

Online sports books offer ‘totals’ betting, also called over/under bets. These are bets where a sports book chooses how many goals they think the two teams in a game will score, combined. Most totals are in the 5.5-6 range, and your job is to decide if the teams will score more or fewer goals than the listed totals.

In general terms, totals bets pay in the ‘even money’ range. They may pay a little better, or a little worse, but somewhere around even money is what you’ll usually get.
