The two NHLers were signed to help highlight the AGLC\u2019s social responsibility programs, GameSense and Self-Exclusion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Both players will be featured in marketing efforts that remind players of all the tools and resources available to them so they can keep a check on their gambling practices,<\/strong> whether that\u2019s bet, loss and deposit limits, voluntary breaks from a casino or online wagering, or Reality Checks.<\/p>\n
Also, as part of the partnership, there will be exclusive meet and greets between sports fans and social media followers and the two players during the new season.<\/p>\n
Draisaitl an MVP Betting Favourite<\/h2>\n
\u201cThe addition of two new elite athlete ambassadors will help connect Alberta sports fans to Alberta-based teams with some of the most exciting, show-stopping performers this province currently has in it,\u201d said Dan Keene, Vice President, Gaming, AGLC<\/a>. <\/i>\u201cLeon and Dustin are competitive, world-class professionals who give Play Alberta deeper opportunities to remind legal-aged Albertans of the responsible gambling features<\/strong> and tentpole matchups on the sports calendar.\u201d<\/p>\n
Play Alberta is the only platform where people in the province can go legally bet on sports and play casino content online. Play Alberta has over 434,000 registered player accounts.<\/p>\n
Deposit Limits<\/h2>\n
On the NHL MVP futures betting front, at BetMGM<\/a>, Draisaitl sits at +1000. Linemate Connor McDavid has the shortest odds there at +190, followed by Nathan MacKinnon of the Avalanche at +475, the Wild\u2019s Kirill Kaprizov at +800, and Nikita Kucherov of the Lightning at +1000.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m excited to strengthen my ties to the community through my relationship with Play Alberta. It\u2019s great to work with a local brand that promotes responsible gambling and creates meaningful ways for me to engage with fans\u2014whether it\u2019s through meet and greets or other exciting events,\u201d said Draisaitl, in a statement.<\/em><\/p>\n
Oilers a Cup Favourite<\/h2>\n
Wolf is a 2025 Calder Trophy finalist for rookie of the year. The Oilers are a Stanley Cup favourite at DraftKings<\/a>, at +800, after the Hurricanes, at +750. The Flames? Not so much, at +10000.<\/p>\n
Play Alberta generated $275 million in net sales in 2024-25, an increase of $35 million from the previous fiscal year, according to AGLC data.<\/p>\n
