W2 and Both To Score - No in Ice Hockey Sports Betting — Explained in Detail

In this betting market, “W2 and Both to Score – No” combines two conditions in one bet:

W2 (Away Win) – The away team must win the match.
Both to Score – No – At least one team must NOT score.
That is, either the home team gets shut out, or the away team wins with a clean sheet.

In other words:

You win the bet only if the away team wins AND either team keeps a clean sheet (doesn’t score).

Match Result	Bet Outcome	Explanation
0 – 2 (Away wins)	Win	Away wins, home team didn’t score
1 – 3 (Away wins)	Loss	Both teams scored
2 – 0 (Home wins)	Loss	Home won, not W2
0 – 1 (Away wins)	Win	Away wins, home team didn’t score
2 – 4 (Away wins)	Loss	Both teams scored
0 – 3 (Away wins)	Win	Away wins, home team didn’t score

This is a double condition bet; both parts must be correct.
“Both to Score – No” means one team must be held to zero goals.
Often requires the away team to have a strong defense and goalie, and the home team to struggle offensively.

Look for Strong Away Defenses:
- Target teams with good road performance and low goals conceded (e.g., Boston Bruins, Carolina Hurricanes).
- Check goalie stats: Save percentage (SV%) and Goals Against Average (GAA).
Weak Home Attack Teams:
- Bet against home teams with poor scoring records or frequent shutouts.
- Consider injuries to top scorers or offensive lines.
Low Total Game Score Expectation:
- If sportsbooks set a low Over/Under line (e.g., 5.0 or 5.5), it might indicate a low-scoring game, increasing chances for a shutout.
Check Head-to-Head History:
- Look at how the teams have performed in past meetings — does the away team dominate and shut them out often?
Avoid Rivalry Games:
- These can be unpredictable, and both teams are more likely to score.

A top-tier away team is visiting a struggling offensive team, and you believe the away team will dominate while keeping a clean sheet.
