  • The 2021-22 NHL season starts on Tuesday, October 12th, and DraftKings Sportsbooks is welcoming all new NHL bettors
  • DraftKings is offering new users a chance to bet $1 on any NHL game and cash $100 if either team scores
  • Read below for the full details of this DraftKings NHL promo, along with how you can claim it

DraftKings Sportsbook is ready for the start of the 2021-22 NHL season. The NHL drops the puck on Tuesday, October 12th, 2021 with the reigning Stanley Cup champs, Tampa Bay Lightning taking on the Pittsburgh Penguins and the newly added expansion team Seattle Kraken playing the Vegas Golden Knights.

DraftKings is giving new NHL bettors the chance to bet $1 on any NHL game in the opening week and cash $100 if a single goal is scored in the game. Seems simple enough right?

Games can’t end in a tie in the NHL, so eventually, a goal will be scored in any of the games you pick. The NHL odds indicate the Penguins and Golden Knights as big favorites in their season openers, and I guarantee both these teams will be able to find the back of the net.

Let’s take a look at the process of signing up at DraftKings and how you can claim their latest NHL promo.

Best Way to Use This Promo

It will be really hard to lose with this DraftKings NHL promo. Luck would really have to be against you as a bettor for there to be 0 goals in both opening NHL games. Let’s look at the NHL odds for opening day and see where the value lies.

NHL Odds

Game Time (EST) Team Moneyline Puck Line Total
Tuesday Oct. 12 Pittsburgh Penguins +140 +1.5 (-195) O 6 (-120)
7:38 p.m. Tampa Bay Lightning -170 -1.5 (+165) U 6 (+100)
Game Time (EST) Team Moneyline Puck Line Total
Tuesday Oct. 12 Seattle Kraken +185 +1.5 (-125) O 5.5 (+115)
10:08 p.m. Vegas Golden Knights -230 -1.5 (+105) U 5.5 (-135)

The Penguins vs Lightning odds are off in my opinion. For one, there will be tons of scoring against Pittsburgh if Tristan Jarry gets the nod, which means this would be the game to use the DraftKings NHL promo on. Moreover, Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin are both out with injuries. Lightning should roll in their opener.

I believe the Kraken have a chance in their NHL debut against the Golden Knights. I have high regular season expectations for Seattle, and I believe they could take down Vegas in their home barn.

All in all, either one of these games will have a goal scored, so feel free to use this DraftKings NHL promo on either opening day matchup.
