Everyone expected the Colorado Avalanche to repeat as Stanley Cup champions before the 2022-23 season got underway.
How things have changed now that we have entered the second half of the postseason! While Colorado remains dangerous, they currently stand the just one point out of the last wild-card spot in the Western Conference.
All eyes are on the Boston Bruins, who’s become the new favourite to win the Stanley Cup as we kick off January. Boston is far and away the best team in the NHL at this point, sitting at the very top with 62 points. Per the Draft Kings Sportsbook, you can bet on the Bruins to win it all for +500. The Avalanche, for now, remain just behind at +550.
Of course, odds and favourites change from betting site to betting site. The popular hockey analytics site MoneyPuck currently has the Toronto Maple Leafs as their favourite to hoist the prestigious trophy this summer. The Maple Leafs and Calgary Flames are the only teams at the moment in Draft Kings Sportsbook’s Top 10.
But we all know how the Maple Leafs struggle with the first round, and things will get clearer once we undergo the trade deadline and get a closer look at the playoff picture.
Sure, you can bet now if you feel certain about the Bruins… or Leafs.
Who will take home the 2023 Stanley Cup?
