A Washington-Vancouver Stanley Cup final has the shortest odds for NHL bettors hoping to predict the finalists for the 2011 playoffs.
That pairing is 13/2 odds, comfortably ahead of the 11/1 odds on a Flyers-Canucks matchup, according to NHL future odds and props posted Tuesday by Sportsbook.
The regular-season champion Canucks are favored to win it all, at 3/1, but they face a stern test in the Sportsbook round against the defending champion Blackhawks. Chicago snuck into the playoffs as the No. 8 seed, but has taken out Vancouver the past two playoff seasons.
The biggest longshot in the Round of 16 is the New York Rangers at 35/1. They face the Capitals in the Sportsbook round and lost key forward Ryan Callahan two weeks ago. Remember Washington is known for first-round chokes.
There are NHL series odds for all eight first-round matchups but some of the most fun odds on the board at Sportsbook (pocket a 30% bonus with your deposit this week) are the player props.
Think Alex Ovechkin will score more than six points in the first-round series against the Rangers? Seems like a lock, but you can bet over or under 6.
You can also wager on exact series outcome, meaning you can bet whether the Canucks will sweep the Blackhawks or beat them in five, six or seven games. The odds change for each scenario.
