So with all these others odds coming out, David Staples had to write an article about Greg Wyshysnski predicting the Oilers win, and then go on to demonstrate he has a very limited understanding of how odds or even math really works.

He believes the Oilers have a 1 out of 4 chance of winning the Cup. He believes Avs have a 1.5 out of 4 chance of winning the Cup, and all other teams combined have a 1.5 out of 4 chance of winning, whatever the hell that means. He also says this team wins the Cup in one out of 3 seasons, whatever the hell that means.

Their odds of winning the Cup this year. One out of four, I’d say. In one out of three seasons, this team would win the Cup. I’d say it’s 1.5 out of 4 for the Avs, with 1.5 out of four for all the other teams combined
