The Favorite

Toronto Maple Leafs 6/1

The Leafs are the prohibitive favorites for a reason and it’s because they look virtually unbeatable more often than not. Toronto has been nothing short of outstanding at both ends of the ice in ranking a phenomenal third in scoring (3.6 gpg) and goals allowed (2.6 gpg).

The Leafs are getting an MVP-caliber campaign out of right winger Mitch Marner (6 goals, 30 assists, third) who has seemingly assisted on every goal the Leafs have scored this season. Newly acquired veteran John Tavares is eighth in scoring and defenseman Morgan Reilly is tied for 13th. Goalie Frederick Andersen is fifth in goals-against average (2.26) and third in save percentage (.932).

Toronto has been very good at home (9-5) and even better on the road (9-3). Even as the overall favorite, Toronto is offering a ton of futures odds value if you ask me.

The Smart Pick

Nashville Predators 7/1

The Predators (17-7-1) might not be the prohibitive favorites, but I think they should be – because they’ve been the best team in hockey from the very start of the regular season. Nashville has been mostly dominating their opponents in ranking an encouraging 10th in scoring (3.3 gpg) and a league-leading first in goals allowed (2.4 gpg).

Goalie Pekka Rinne is playing some of his best hockey in compiling a 10-4 record and stupendous, league-leading 1.77 goals against average and league-leading .938 save percentage. Left winger Filip Forsberg is 11th in goals with 14 while center Ryan Johnson 921 points), defenseman Roman Josi (18 points), center Kyle Turris (16 points) and defenseman Mattias Ekholm (15 points) are all pretty much playing out of their collective minds.

The Predators are also getting done equally well at home and on the road, going 9-4 at home and 8-3-1 on the road. Yes, it’s a long season, but Nashville has the look of a team that is going to be very difficult to dispatch this season, just as they have been for each of the last three seasons.

The Longshot

Buffalo Sabres 40/1

I don’t know why the Sabres (17-6-2) haven’t had their odds shortened by now, but if they keep playing the way they have so far this season, they certainly will, so if I were you, I’d make an NHL futures odds wager in the MyBookie Sportsbook on Buffalo to win it all right now!

The Sabres look like a long shot at the latest Stanley Cup Odds.

Buffalo has won 10 straight heading into Thursday night’s huge matchup against Tampa Bay. The Sabres are ranked a modest 16th in scoring (3.0 gpg), but a fantastic fifth in goals allowed 92.7 gpg).

Buffalo has held seven of their last 10 opponents – and four straight – at the time of this writing, to two goals or less. Veteran left-winger Jeff Skinner is tied for the league lead in goals with 19 while center Jack Eichel is fourth in assists with 28. Goaltender Carter Hutton has exceeded expectations in a big way and the Sabres look very real right now.

“(The) last 10 games, when it’s a tight game, we feel confident,” defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen said. “If we’re down, we don’t panic. We believe. We have the belief now.’
