We take Action on all NHL events. Our Wagering Menu for Hockey Betting includes, but is not limited to, the following Exciting Wagers:
  • Moneyline for each game
  • Total (over/under) for each game

General Rules
For betting purposes, unless otherwise stipulated, games are official after 55 minutes of play.
Teams must play for there to be action, all wagers included, all leagues included.
  • Moneyline Wagers
VIPsports is proud to offer Moneyline wagering, both online and over the telephone. Moneyline Wagering is simply wagering on the contest based on a given price rather than a pointspread. The team wagered on just has to win the game. Puck Lines may be offered at the houses option.
Example - Moneyline Wager
The posted line on a hockey game is the New Jersey Devils -155 at the Dallas Stars +135.
A player could choose one of two moneyline wagers on this matchup: Devils -155 - If the Devils win then the player laid $155.00 to win $100.00. Stars +135 - If the Stars win then the player who bet $100.00 wins $135.00.

Example - Puck Line Wager
The posted line on a hockey game is the New Jersey Devils -1 1/2 +130 at the Dallas Stars +1 1/2 -150.
A player could choose one of two Puck Line Wagers on this matchup: Devils -1 1/2 +130 - If the Devils win by 2 goals or more, then the player who bet $100.00 wins $130.00. Stars +1 1/2 -150 - If the Stars win the game, or lose by only one goal, then the player laid $150.00 to win $100.00.
Total (over/under) Wagers
 
VIPsports is proud to offer Total (over/under) betting, both online and over the telephone. On an over/under wager, the total goals of the game by both teams, extra innings included, must fall over or under the side selected.
Example
The posted total on a hockey game is 4 1/2 Under -125 Over +105.
A player could choose one of two Total (over/under) wagers on this matchup: Over 4 1/2 +105 - If the total goals of both teams combined are more than 4 1/2, then the player bet $100.00 to win $105.00. Under 4 1/2 -125 - If the total goals of both teams combined are less than 4 1/2, then the player who laid $125.00 wins $100.00.
Overtime and Shootouts
For wagering purposes overtimes and shootouts count towards the final score. If a team scores in overtime or wins shootout one goal will count towards final score. So sides and totals are affected.
