Alright, let’s get those NHL parlays tuned up. If you’re looking for a little extra “puck luck” on your bet slip, bet365’s Bet Boosts are essentially the power-play advantage of the betting world. They give you better odds on specific matchups without you having to do any extra heavy lifting.

Here is how you can snag that extra value for tonight’s slate in three easy steps.

Step 1: Scouting the Matchups

The first step is all about finding where the action is. Head over to the NHL sub-section within the sports menu or click directly into a high-profile game like tonight’s Canucks and Devils matchup. Just like you’d scout a watch manifest before making a purchase, you want to see the full board of Puck Lines, Money Lines, and Game Totals. Navigating to the specific event page is the best way to see the full range of available “Bet Boosts” tailored for that specific game, allowing you to see exactly which scenarios the book is giving you an edge on.

Step 2: Identifying the Green Arrow Advantage

Once you’re on the game page, keep your eyes peeled for the bright green arrow. This is the universal signal that a “Bet Boost” is live for that market. It’s a transparent way to see the value: bet365 will show you the original odds with a literal line through them, sitting right next to the new, higher-paying boosted odds. It’s the betting equivalent of a “limited time offer” on a luxury piece you’ve been eyeing. If you see that green light on a parlay—like a “McDavid to Score and Oilers to Win” combo—you know you’re getting a higher payout for the exact same risk.

Step 3: Putting it on the Tape

When you’ve found a boost that fits your strategy, all that’s left is to “put it on the tape” and finalize the play. Click or tap the boosted odds price directly; this automatically sends the selection to your Bet Slip with the improved odds locked in. You don’t need to enter any promo codes or jump through hoops. Just like choosing a reliable Seiko over a flashy but overpriced alternative, you’re making the “smart money” move here. Review your stake in the slip, make sure it fits your “Value and Quality” mission for the night, and hit place bet to get in on the action.
