Analyzing NHL Stanley Cup Odds Updated Via FanDuel Sportsbook
AI-generated illustration.

The NHL regular season is over a month old and it is clear who is very good and which teams also have work to do. Last season, the Vegas Golden Knights won the Stanley Cup title for the first time in franchise history against the Florida Panthers in five games.

It feels as if Vegas is on a mission to repeat at the current moment. They have the third-best odds on FanDuel Sportsbook at +1000 to repeat as champions because of head coach Bruce Cassidy, goalie Adin Hill, Jack Eichel, and others. Who else has great odds to win it all this season?

Colorado Avalanche +850

The Colorado Avalanche have the best odds on FanDuel Sportsbook to win the Stanley Cup Title this season. Colorado has picked up right where they have left off over the past couple of years. Despite losing in the first round of the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs to the Seattle Kraken last season, the Avalanche are led by Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar.

Mikko Rantanen is also a very underrated player for this hockey team. The Avalanche are possibly the biggest threat to the Vegas Golden Knights in the Western Conference. It will all come down to goaltending and what head coach Jared Bednar has cooked up.

Carolina Hurricanes +950

The Carolina Hurricanes have the second-best odds to win it all on FanDuel Sportsbook. Carolina has found their mojo after getting off to a slow start. They have had a ton of success over the last several years despite not winning a Stanley Cup Title yet under head coach Rod Brind’Amour. They hope to win one again eventually.

He won one as a player back in 2006 against the Edmonton Oilers in seven games. It is the only title they have won in franchise history. The Hurricanes goaltending always remains a question mark for them despite the talent they have on offense and defense led by Sebastian Aho and Andrei Svechnikov.

Dallas Stars +1100

The Dallas Stars have the fourth-best odds on FanDuel Sportsbook to win it all this season. Head coach Pete DeBoer led this squad to the Western Conference Finals a season ago before losing to the Vegas Golden Knights in six games after trailing 3-0 in the series.

They have a nice core of Jason Robertson, Miro Heiskanen, and Jake Oettinger that will keep them competitive for a long time. Dallas will also give the Colorado Avalanche fits in the Central Division. The Dallas Stars have not won the Stanley Cup Finals since 1999 against the Buffalo Sabres in six games.
