NHL Stanley Cup matches see massive increase on sportsbooks

Since the regulated market in Ontario went live in April 2022, one fact has stood out on the Canadian sports betting scene: hockey betting north of the border hasn't taken off as much as some had anticipated.

The NFL, NBA, and NHL are the most popular sportsbooks in a country where hockey is the national sport and is inextricably linked to the national identity.
 
people in the Us are actively taking parts in sports betting after the country has allowed easier rules for gambling operators to work and offer their services which is why their stakes are always going up indeed actually .
 
It seems that Canadian people interest in sports is changing overtime. Canada is known for hockey and skating but recently other sports like football, golf, basketball and volleyball is getting attention in a country where other sports have no following.
