Best odds to win the Stanley Cup
The favourites: Avalanche, Panthers and Stars (+900)
The Avalanche lost in the second round of the playoffs to the Dallas Stars and finished with 107 points in the regular season.
With talents like Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar, there's no surprise to see Colorado open another season as a favourite to win the Cup.
The 2022 Stanley Cup champions will look to climb back to the top of the mountain.
Dallas finished with the most points in the Western Conference and lost to the Oilers in six games. A deep team with a mix of youth and veteran presence is surely going to be in the hunt come playoff time again.
Canadian team odds
The Oilers sit just behind the favourites at 10-to-1 odds. They were one win away from a title after clawing back valiantly from a 3-0 deficit to Florida in the Final.
Edmonton started the season slow, losing 12 of its first 18 games in regulation. But with a coaching change, Kris Knoblauch was able to will this team back into the mix.
Most expect the Oilers to be in contention for as long as Connor McDavid is on the roster.
The Maple Leafs are the other notable Canadian team, carrying 16-to-1 odds.
It is yet to be determined if the 'core four' will be intact come next season but fans shouldn't be surprised if big changes are made. One playoff series win since drafting Auston Matthews isn't the result most expected.
Panthers' odds to repeat
Florida Panthers (+900)
The Panthers overcame a scare in the Final, closing out the Oilers in Game 7 to win the franchise's first Stanley Cup.
What many believe to be the most complete roster in the NHL will be largely the same next season.
Core players like Aleksander Barkov, Matthew Tkachuk, Sam Bennett, Aaron Ekblad and Sergei Bobrovsky are locked in for at least one more season and will look to lead the Panthers to back-to-back Stanley Cups.
Stanley Cup betting notes
- The Devils have 12-to-1 odds despite missing the playoffs last season. This isn't too surprising when you consider the potential on this roster led by Jack and Luke Hughes. The front office also required Jacob Markstrom, a much-needed goalie upgrade.
- The Senators acquired Linus Ullmark, which will help their young core continue building in the Atlantic division. At +3,500, the Sens may be poised to be Canada's next young team to break out following the Canucks' surprise first-place finish in the Pacific Division last season.
