How Does NHL 1st Period Betting Work ?

In NHL betting, the “1st period” refers to the first period of the game. You can place bets on the outcome of the first period separately from the full game. These bets are similar to traditional “totals” or “over/under” bets, but they only apply to the first period of the game.

For example, you might see a line for the first period of an NHL game that looks like this:

First Period Totals: Over 2.5 (-110) Under 2.5 (-110)

In this case, you can place a bet on whether the combined score of both teams in the first period of the game will be over or under 2.5 goals. The minus sign (-) indicates the favorite, while the plus sign (+) indicates the underdog. In this case, both the over and under are listed at -110, which means that you would have to wager $110 to win $100.

You can also place bets on the outcome of individual periods or periods of play. For example, you might see a line for the second period of the game that looks like this:

Second Period Totals: Over 2.5 (-110) Under 2.5 (-110)

In this case, you can place a bet on whether the combined score of both teams in the second period of the game will be over or under 2.5 goals.
