BetMGM

New customers will receive a BetMGM sign-up bonus worth up to $1,500. You can set up an account and place a bet worth at least $10 on any NHL game or another sporting event to qualify. If this bet wins, BetMGM Sportsbook will pay out in cash.

If your first bet loses, you will get the money back, up to $1,500 in bonus bets. If your first bet is worth less than $50, you will get a single bonus bet in return. If it was larger than $50, your rebate will be split up into five bonus bets.

For example, if you lose a $500 NHL bet, you will be returned five $100 bonus bets. The bonus bets only have a 1x playthrough requirement, and you will then be permitted to cash out any winnings earned.

Addtional bonuses and promos

There are lots of additional bonuses on offer at BetMGM too. They include bet boosts, “bet and get” promotions and a refer-a-friend bonus worth $50.

You will also earn rewards at retail casino venues owned by MGM Resorts, including Bellagio, MGM Grand and Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, MGM Grand Detroit, Borgata in Atlantic City and many more famous resorts.

BetMGM uses sports betting software developed by Entain, its co-owner. Entain runs a variety of large European betting sites, including Ladbrokes, Coral and Bwin. It used the same platform for BetMGM, although the team tweaked the software to make it ideal for American bettors, with NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAAF and NCAAB taking a dominant position.

It accepts wagers on more than 20 sports. The soccer, tennis, golf, boxing, UFC and motorsports coverage is very strong. You can also bet on Aussie Rules, badminton, cricket, cycling, darts, handball, lacrosse, rugby league, rugby union, snooker, table tennis, volleyball and water polo, although the menu changes throughout the year.

When betting on popular sports like basketball, football and hockey, there are normally around 100 markets to consider. It also offers a one game parlay builder, which increases your options exponentially. There are standard juice lines, and the odds are similar to those provided by competitors such as FanDuel, DraftKings, Caesars Sportsbook and bet365. You can also browse futures bets, and multiples such as parlays are easy to form.

BetMGM is an official sports betting partner of the NHL, along with the NFL, NBA, WNBA, MLB, MLS, PGA Tour, LPGA and National Lacrosse League. It offers live streaming of every NHL game within its mobile app and website. That makes BetMGM a great option for live betting on pro hockey. It always offers a wide selection of in-game options, and the odds are often appealing.

When you select an NHL game, you will see the main markets, followed by the one game parlay builder, player props, totals, spreads, win/total combos, bets on periods and game props. It offers various alternate puck lines and total goals lines, plus correct score bets and a two-way moneyline, which settles after regular time.

You can also bet on a variety of additional hockey leagues, from Belarus to Switzerland, and its coverage of tournaments such as the World Championships is always thorough. Yet the NHL dominates the hockey section, and it is an excellent sportsbook for pre-game, in-play and futures betting on the world’s leading hockey league.
