Every NHL team has its all-star players and fan favorites, but hockey and gambling enthusiasts shouldn’t forget about the up-and-coming top 2015/16 NHL rookies!

With so many current hockey greats getting older, the pressure’s on the younger guys to step up—so get ready to bet on sports in the US, because the 2015/16 NHL rookies this season are some of the hottest new talent that hockey’s seen in a while! Read on to learn more about the future of hockey, and get their team division odds for this year’s NHL courtesy of sports betting site RealBet.

Anthony Duclair


Anthony Duclair is a Quebec native and current forward for the Arizona Coyotes renowned for his power play and high goal count. Prior to playing with the Coyotes, he had some impressive performances in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, as well as when he played for Canada in the World Junior Hockey Championship.

As a left-winger for his team, Duclair has proved himself to be a natural scorer with a quick release and a penchant for always being right where his team needs him on the ice. However, if he wants to truly be a great, he needs to get physically stronger and improve his defense.

Along with Duclair, Maxi Domi is the Arizona Coyotes’ other heavily touted top 2015/16 NHL rookie.

Domi in particular is praised by NHL betting picks for his remarkable offense, his goals, and his ability to play both center and wing.

Fans of online gambling sites in the US should take note: Domi’s part of a hockey legacy, being the son of Toronto Maple Leaf player Tie Domi. Talent on the ice obviously runs in his blood!
