A day after the Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup, the Bodog betting website came out with its odds on who will win the Cup next year and the Canadiens are listed at 50-1 odds.

The Tampa Bay Lightning are listed as the Cup favourites for 2019 by Bodog at 9-1 odds, followed by the Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Vegas Golden Knights and Winnipeg Jets, all at 10-1. The Nashville Predators are at 11-1, along with the Pittsburgh Penguins, followed by the Capitals at 14-1.

Of course, teams can change a lot over the summer at the NHL Draft June 22-23 in Dallas and on July 1, when the free-agent sweepstakes begin.
