The NHL slate on Thursday night offered bettors everywhere some opportunities for profit, but it definitely felt a little bit sweeter for one Fanduel Sportsbook bettor out there. The bettor is going viral Friday on Friday after turning just $10 into just under $5K with a four-leg shot-in-the-dark play that ended up hitting. The bettor rolled with the NHL parlay consisting of Detroit Red Wings ML + over 5.5 (+550), St. Louis Blues + under 5.5 (+360), Vegas Golden Knights + under 5.5 (+430) and Seattle Kraken + over 5.5 (+210).

NHL Bettor Turns $10 Into $5K on Incredible NHL Parlay
The NHL parlay hit by this happy Fanduel Sportsbook customer was one of the best hits we’ve seen in a while, but it obviously didn’t come without a little bit of luck. In the narrowest of all the four plays, the Knights fell behind the San Jose Sharks 1-0 going into the third period. Luckily (at least for this bettor) they were able to rattle off two goals in the third, with the game-winner coming when Knights forward Chandler Stephenson found William Carrier for a wide-open goal with just 18 seconds remaining in the game.
The tap-in undoubtedly sent this viral bettor into a frenzy, and it also masked some of the Knights’ power play struggles throughout the game. The Knights (33-18-4) sit two games ahead of the Seattle Kraken for first place in the Pacific Division. They have not lost since the NHL All-Star Break.
“I don’t know if you can say there’s one thing,” Golden Knights coach Bruce Cassidy told the media after Sunday’s win, per Yard Barker. “Clearly, the dads gave us some juice. So energy. I think you’re kind of limping into the break a little bit, everyone knows it’s coming. You’re on the road, things aren’t happening for you, so mentally, you’re a little bit challenged that way. You come out of the break, you’re refreshed. That mental, sort of, weight is gone. You’re almost like starting over.
“So you put those two things together. History of scoring in our room has been there, so you knew it wasn’t going to go on forever, so you mix that in. We got some breaks in Minny [Minnesota]. Some maybe we weren’t getting before. So it’s probably four or five different things.
“Now after Nashville, now [you say] ‘OK, we can do it again.’ So now you’re feeling good about yourself, so put that in confidence. So the guys are feeling it right now.”
The Golden Knights are certainly a confident group going forward, and they made one bettor a whole lot of money by pulling off the finishing touches on a wild NHL parlay. Feel free to use OddsShopper’s new tools to craft your own profitable NHL parlay for the rest of the weekend!
