What these numbers mean
Market's chance
How likely the betting market thinks a result is, in plain words. About 7 in 10 means it happens about 7 times out of 10.
Fair price
The price with the bookies' cut taken out. We take the middle price across all the books we check and remove their share. It is our house line, not a tip.
Best price
The most any book we check is paying right now. A $10 bet at $1.50 pays back $15 if it wins. Every book keeps a cut, so the best price is often a little under the fair price.
How much the bookies keep
For every $100 bet on who wins, this is the share the bookies keep. Less is better for you.
Moved toward
Since prices opened, the market now gives that side a bigger chance than it did at first. News and money move prices.

NHL odds questions

How do I read NHL odds?
Each game shows the market's chance for each team, the fair price with the bookies' cut taken out, and the best price we can find. A $10 bet at $1.50 pays back $15 if it wins.
What is a fair price?
It is the price with the bookies' cut removed, worked out from the middle price across all the books we check. If the fair price is $1.43, the market thinks that team wins about 7 times in 10.
How much do bookies keep on NHL games?
About $4.60 of every $100 bet on who wins, going by the prices we checked on 6 October. It moves a little from day to day.
Why do NHL odds move?
Prices move when news lands, like injuries, weather or team changes, and when lots of money comes in on one side. Each game above says which way it has moved since prices opened. Always check the price in your app before you bet.
