My favorite NHL betting sites

I’ve always loved hockey—growing up in Montreal, it’s in my blood. My dad and I would huddle by the TV every Saturday night to watch the Habs. Fast forward to today, and I’ve turned my hockey obsession into something even more exciting: NHL betting. There’s nothing like the thrill of predicting a winner, watching the odds shift, and seeing a last-minute goal swing your bet in your favor.

I still remember last season’s game between the Leafs and the Oilers. I’d been analyzing the NHL betting odds all day, and something about Toronto’s recent form told me to take a chance on the winning margin bet—Leafs to win by two goals. Risky? You bet. But it paid off. When Matthews scored that final empty-netter, I was jumping off my couch, nearly spilling my drink. That’s the beauty of hockey betting—it’s nerve-wracking, but when you get it right, it feels like you’ve won the Stanley Cup yourself.

Now, for anyone in Canada looking to get into NHL betting sites, I’ve tried a few and narrowed down the top ones:
  • MyStake: Easily my favorite. It’s the best all-around NHL betting site in Canada. They’ve got everything—major hockey leagues, an intuitive bet builder, and options for both crypto and fiat payments. The bonus is sweet too: 100% up to C$500. I use MyStake for its clean layout and solid NHL betting lines.
  • Donbet: If you’re like me and love getting a little extra, Donbet is the way to go. Their cashback offers are great for those not-so-lucky days, and the live streaming is clutch if you can’t watch on TV. Plus, you get a 120% bonus up to C$600—not bad!
When it comes to betting strategies, I’d recommend starting with the moneyline. It’s the simplest bet—you just back the team you think will win. If you’re feeling a little more confident, try the puck line or a goal total bet (I’ve had good luck there when teams with solid offenses face weak defenses).

And yes, you can (and should) sign up for multiple sportsbooks in Canada. Why? More bonuses, better odds comparisons, and more chances to get ahead. It’s like having a backup goalie—you’ve got options if your first pick doesn’t perform.

I’m curious—what’s your most memorable NHL betting win? Or, if you’re just getting started, what bet are you looking forward to trying first?
