Do NHL Moneyline Bets Include Overtime and Shootouts?

Yes. A standard two-way NHL moneyline generally settles on the game winner, including overtime or a shootout if needed. The sportsbook’s full market label and posted rules govern the wager.

A standard two-way moneyline remains open until the game has a winner. A three-way regulation market is different: it settles after 60 minutes, with a tie available as a separate outcome.

A two-way moneyline lists only the two teams. Labels such as “regulation,” “60-minute result,” or “three-way” indicate a market that does not include overtime or shootouts.

A postponement does not turn a two-way moneyline into a regulation bet. Whether the wager remains active or is voided depends on the sportsbook’s posted postponement rules.

It settles on the score at the end of the third period. Overtime and shootout goals cannot change the result of that regulation-only bet.

If the game was tied after 60 minutes, the regulation team selection loses under a three-way market, even if that team wins in overtime. The overtime result matters to a full-game moneyline, not a regulation-only selection.

In a three-way regulation market, the draw is the winning selection. That is why a regulation-time tie is a separate outcome, rather than a pending team bet waiting for overtime.

No. Some books offer a two-way regulation market with different tie-settlement rules. The listed selections and house rules determine whether a tie voids a wager or produces another result.

A three-way regulation market offers a home win, an away win, or a tie. The score after 60 minutes decides which selection wins; overtime and shootouts do not count.

Yes. If regulation ends 2–2 and the home team wins in a shootout, the tie selection wins because the game was tied after 60 minutes.

No. A team that was tied after 60 minutes did not win in regulation, even if it wins in overtime. In a three-way market, the tie selection wins instead.

The home/draw/away format resembles soccer three-way match results, but the sports do not share one universal settlement rule. The market’s stated cutoff determines which score counts.

Yes. If the game reaches a shootout, the team that wins it wins a standard full-game moneyline bet, even if the wager was placed before puck drop.

No. The moneyline depends on which team wins the game, not how many players score in the shootout. The final score typically adds one goal to the shootout winner’s total.

A live market labeled “game winner” or “full game” generally includes the shootout. Labels vary among sportsbooks offering live NHL wagers, so the posted market terms control settlement.

Yes. A live bet on a specific period or regulation result can settle before overtime or a shootout. The time remaining when the bet is placed does not, by itself, determine its settlement window.

The sportsbook’s postponement policy controls. Some bets remain active if the game is played within a stated window; others are voided.

Settlement depends on the operator’s rules and whether it recognizes an official result. A started game is not automatically a settled bet.

Not necessarily. The sportsbook may apply a time limit or require the game to be played on its original date.

Not automatically. Check each market’s grading terms; overtime rules for NHL totals may differ from moneyline settlement, and puck lines have their own rules.
