Olympic Hockey Final Betting Tips Pt 2

Look for Canada to hold their even money price tag prior to that, but you are likely to see a significant amount of steam come in on them as we get closer to things getting started.

Sweden are 3.25 to get the victory and the draw (which obviously would send us to overtime) pays out at an impressive 4.0 price tag. That’s a good bet if you see a scoreless first period and there is absolutely nothing between the two teams. Sometimes when you have so many potential match-winners on the ice at the same time, it can see the good players cancel each other out and turn things into sort of a dour affair. That said, there is every chance this thing ends 0-0. 

A bet on Canada to win the match outright in OT or penalties would pay out at 1.55 while Sweden can be backed at a 2.3 price tag. That’s a good bet for Swedish fans as it gives them a few more outs - Sweden are more likely to win via a shoot-out than they are through the actual 60 minutes of action being played out in its entirety. The bookmakers do not expect a high-scoring affair and you will find under 5.5 paying out a mere 1.28. 

Sidney Crosby to score a goal at any time would pay out at a very solid 3.25 and he is due to score considering the relative lack of influence that he has had throughout the past few matches. He played an underwhelming tournament last year as well before coming through when it was most important and taking everything down with that incredible overtime goal that will be etched into Canadian memories for eons. 

Corey Perry - the hero from the previous match-up for Canada - would pay out at 4.5 to grab a goal at any point while the one to really keep your eye on might be Drew Doughty at a 5.0 listing. Jeff Carter is a 3.75 shot to grab a goal at any point in the match while Ryan Getzlaf is a 4.33 shot.
