With the regular season over, and the playoffs continuing to roll, we investigate everyone’s current odds at raising Lord Stanley and some value plays to make before it odds get too small.



Updated Odds as of April 29th.



Odds To Win The Cup:

Boston +300

Columbus +570



San Jose +330

Colorado +550



St. Louis +650

Dallas +650



New York Islanders +1200

Carolina +450



Boston +300 (+900 Prior To Playoffs)

After coming back from a 3-2 deficit to win in 7 games with Toronto in the First Round, the Bruins are going to be in another dog fight with the Blue Jackets as both games have gone to overtime already. Currently the series is tied 1-1 heading back to Columbus so home ice is now in favor or the Cinderella Blue Jackets. Boston is the better team… but so was Tampa Bay and we know what happened to them. Not much has changed for the Bruins odds as they seem to be the clear betting favorite of the remaining teams and might have the easiest path to get to the Cup Final.



Columbus +570 (+2500 Prior To Playoffs)

Columbus is going to heavily rely on Bobrovsky again if they stand any chance in this series, thus far they have been successful in limiting Boston’s fast pace of play. The took home ice in their favor in Game 2 winning 3-2 in double OT, so now the series is up for grabs as they shift back to Columbus. If they continue to limit Boston like they did Tampa Bay they have one of the best shot to make the Cup final and possibly win the Cup and make all the trade deadline moves pay off.



San Jose +330 (+1400 Prior To Playoffs)

San Jose shocked me… It took a little bit of luck (or help from a bad five minute major penalty) but the Sharks are in the second round of the playoffs. They rallied from 3-1 series hole, to beat Vegas in a wild Game 7. They now have the best odds of any team in the West, but with that said the West has been very wide open, with the Blues, Avs and Stars right behind them. Of the four teams remaining in the West, San Jose isn’t the most likely team to come out of the West and win the Cup. Realistically, their odds should be around +450 / +500, as they aren’t even on the same level as the Bruins and have a much harder “road” to get to the Cup final. As much as I want to see the Sharks win (personally) it isn’t enough for me considering their struggles against Vegas and current matchup with Colorado.



Colorado +550 (+2500 Prior To Playoffs)

Similar to the Jackets in the East, the Avs’ slayed the Kings of the West by beating the Flames in 5 games. Prior to the playoffs starting I mentioned the Avs’ have a lot of value, but could they beat the Flames? If you were lucky enough to get them at +2500, congrats. If not then it will be disappointing to settle for the current price of +550 (2nd best in the west). I still personally think something is up with the Sharks and they can get past them this round. It’s the next round that they could run into trouble matching up with the Blues or Stars, let alone the possibility of playing the Bruins in the Finals.



St. Louis +650 (+1400 Prior To Playoffs)

As advertised the Blues took care of the Jets handedly winning their series in 6 games, they now find themselves matched up with one of the best defensive teams in the NHL, the Dallas Stars. I love what the Blues bring to the table, as Binnington has proven that the playoff spot light isn’t too bright for him and he has lived up to the expectations so far. The goals are coming for the Blues despite predictions of a low scoring series, yet all indications are it might be a high scoring one. If the Blues can limit the Stars special teams and play 5-on-5 they will be fine.



Dallas +650 (+2200 Prior To Playoffs)

Dallas upset my cup pick in the first round…. That didn’t last long now did it? They beat the Preds in six games. Dallas came into the playoffs with one of the best defences in the league and has been on display so far in the playoffs. The winner of this series is going to the Cup Finals, I am convinced and will represent the West. I believe they can beat the Bruins (or anyone else they could play) in the Finals. They are worth the value play at this point, but we also wish we got them at +2200 prior to the playoffs starting.



New York Islanders +1200 (+1700 Prior To Playoffs)

The Islanders did this to them self… they swept Penguins in 4 games (2 of which where in Long Island.) and now they go back “home” to Brooklyn for the first two games of the series and lose them. So much for “home ice” when your home is almost 30 miles away. They are down 0-2 to the Cane’s that surprised everyone in taking down the defending champion Capitals. Are the Islanders better? Yes. Should they win the series? Yes. Their odd haven’t changed drastically from the start of the playoffs so here is your second chance to get the Islanders at a great price before it’s gone.



Carolina +450 (+2500 Prior To Playoffs)

Carolina may shock the NHL world again. Don’t get me wrong… Columbus beating Tampa was shocking, but no one thought the Caps would lose also this early in the playoffs as well. But here are the “Jerks” of the playoffs winning the first two games on the ROAD in the second round against the Islanders If the Petr Mrazek injury isn’t too serious they can upset the Islanders and hang with the Jackets, but would lose to the Bruins or any team out West. Next year the Cane’s need to get a solid #1 in net to be a serious contender in the East.



The Pick: St. Louis +650

Best Value: Islanders +1200, Dallas +650
