The Stanley Cup has long been viewed as Canada’s trophy, despite the fact that American-based teams have won it every year since 1994.
But that could change in 2011 as Vancouver is favored to beat Boston in Stanley Cup odds posted at online sportsbooks such as Bodog this week.
The Canucks opened as -235 favorites, meaning if you want to win $100, you would need to risk $235 to turn that profit. The Bruins, as the Cup underdogs, are +195. That means betting $100 on the B’s would return a $195 profit if they can pull off the upset.
But game odds are just one aspect of Stanley Cup wagering. You can bet at 25/1 odds that the Bruins will seep. Every possible option for the series result is represented at Bodog and other sportsbooks.
Think Ryan Kesler will win the Conn Smythe Trophy? Sportsbooks have him listed as the Stanley Cup MVP favorite.
