Betting Odds to win the Stanley Cup
This is hilarious the Oilers are given identical odds as the Flames to win the cup and to win the Western Conference this year.
For people that don't understand how the numbers work, if you see it says Chicago +650 to win the Stanley Cup that means if you bet $100, you will win $650.

I can't wait for them to fail again this year.

Winning the western conference means getting to the cup finals or most points?

Homerism aside, the Flames actually have decent value.
Might throw 100 down

The Flames have fantastic value considering how many teams actually stand a chance. The odds say Calgary has less than a 1 in 30 chance when the fact is it's more like 1 in 10 considering the only real challenges will be Tampa, Anaheim, St. Louis, Anaheim and Chicago.
Every other team I'd put even or worse than Calgary, maybe Pittsburgh and LA but still our odds are much better than presented here. We have one of the most stacked defense cores and our top 3 forward lines will rival most with the exception of 3 or 4 teams.

Avs seem quite out of place as well, I think they're better than a lot of the teams ahead of them there.

Oiler fans have more disposable income than I thought. They are drinking the Kool aid something fierce.

Those are good odds for the Flames. Risk $200 ($100 for each) and you could take home $4,900.
How bad are the Leafs going to be this year? Usually, they get a bit of a boost on odds like this just because they're the Leafs and their fans have blind faith despite all evidence to the contrary. Everyone in Ontario must be still distracted by the Jays.

Tempting to bet
$100 - CHI
$100 - TB
$100 - ANA
$100 - LA
$100 - NYR
$50 - PIT
$50 - CGY
Good chance you make a small amount
CHI
PIT
Most likely you almost double your money
TB
ANA
LA
NYR
Long shot you make 5.5x your money
CGY
Just guessing 10-20% chance you lose all $600?

Have a feeling the Ducks get over the hump. Dallas Stars have value to win the West. Don't see any Canadian teams contending deep in the playoffs other than Montreal but they won't win.

Agree re: Stars, disagree re Habs. They are pretty bad. They rode Price's god-like performance last season to even make the playoffs. I'm expecting a bubble team with a first round bounce if they even make it this year because I doubt that even Price can duplicate that performance.
The Flames and the Jets are the best Canadian teams right now, IMO, and also have the best trajectories over the next 3-5 years. Sens are always a bit of a wild card though.

Is there any place to look at the past pre-season cup odds? You could have probably made a small fortune betting on LA the year they won their first cup
