Stanley Cup Finals Odds, Picks & Team’s Analysis

When you get down to the final four teams in the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs, you generally find that they are all rather evenly matched.

It’s usually easy to make a case for every team at this point, with each of them having certain strengths that make them capable of going all the way and hoisting the Stanley Cup.

 

My Analysis about the Stanley Cup Final Odds to Win

This is exactly where we are right now, with both the Eastern and Western Conference Finals balanced on a knife edge. Both series really could go either way, but the bookies do have an opinion on how this might all play out. As you are going to see, though, they don’t really have a very clear favorite, so let’s take a look at the current odds to win the 2024 Stanley Cup to see if we can figure it out.

New York Rangers Betting Odds +246

The Rangers started these playoffs looking like a team that was going to be almost impossible to beat. They swept the Washington Capitals in Round 1, outscoring them 15-7 in the process, before taking 3 in a row from the Carolina Hurricanes in the second round. Just when it looked like another sweep was coming, Carolina won 2 in a row before finally going down in 6 games. The Rangers lost Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Final to the Florida Panthers but have bounced back to win 2 in a row and steal back home ice advantage. Game 4 is going to be huge.

Edmonton Oilers Betting Odds +250

The Oilers saw their playoff get off to a pretty solid start, taking out the LA Kings in 5 games and scoring 22 goals in the process. Things got a little tougher in Round 2, though, which was not totally unexpected given that it was the Vancouver Canucks up next. The Oilers actually found themselves down 3-2 and on the brink of elimination before winning the final 2 games of the series to take it in 7 games. They will head home for Game 3 in the Western Conference on a high after getting the split in Dallas to take home ice advantage.

Dallas Stars Betting Odds +260

The Dallas Stars have had to battle and claw their way to the Western Conference Final, which makes them a very dangerous proposition. They had to dig out from a hole right off the bat, going down 0-2 against the defending champion Vegas Golden Knights. They battled back and eventually took the series in 7 games. They had another battle on their hands in Round 2. Requiring 6 games to knock off the Colorado Avalanche, although they never looked to be in serious trouble. They may have lost the home ice advantage to the Oilers, but do not count this team out.

Florida Panthers Betting Odds +380

The Panthers made it all the way to the Stanley Cup Final last season before eventually losing to Vegas, so they have the experience required to go all the way. They are down 2-1 to the Rangers in the Eastern Conference Final, but they have been behind in these playoffs before. After beating the Lightning in 5 games in Round 1, the Panthers lost their opening second round game to the Boston Bruins before bouncing back to win 3 in a row and eventually take the series in 6 games. This team is playoff tough, so do not count them out either.
