That’s just stupid.
The concept of public teams is measurable.

Then please explain every other Leaf season with Vegas odds. Why are the Leafs always so low EXCEPT for this year? Could it be because they had 105 points and added Tavares and Matthews/Marner/Nylander were all 21 and under last season.
Come on, if the Panthers had that same roster they are the favs as well.
Oh Look, when the Leafs sucked 2 years ago, they were 29th in odds:
Anaheim Ducks 99.5
Arizona Coyotes 78
Boston Bruins 91.5
Buffalo Sabres 86.5
Calgary Flames 88.5
Carolina Hurricanes 78.5
Chicago Blackhawks 102.5
Colorado Avalanche 87.5
Columbus Blue Jackets 85
Dallas Stars 103
Detroit Red Wings 88.5
Edmonton Oilers 88.5
Florida Panthers 98
Los Angeles Kings 98.5
Minnesota Wild 93.5
Montreal Canadiens 98
Nashville Predators 97
New Jersey Devils 85.5
New York Islanders 94
New York Rangers 94.5
Ottawa Senators 82
Philadelphia Flyers 90.5
Pittsburgh Penguins 102.5
San Jose Sharks 100.5
St. Louis Blues 100.5
Tampa Bay Lightning 105.5
Toronto Maple Leafs 79.5
Vancouver Canucks 76.5
Washington Capitals 106
Winnipeg Jets 85
Vegas odds ARE NOT increased due to fanbase size. That's ridiculous. You are trying to find a lame excuse for the Leafs to be that high. They are good. End of story.
