We’re a day away from the beginning of the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs and 16 teams have hopes of winning the title this year. Will it be the Presidents’ Trophy winning Avalanche? How about the Hurricanes, those jerks? Can the Maple Leafs end their 54-year drought? Will the Lightning go back-to-back?
Those questions will be answered over the next two months as we get summer playoff hockey again. While we wait to see who will be crowned this year’s champion, our friends at Pointsbet have created various NHL odds for division reps, the Stanley Cup champion, and Conn Smythe Trophy winner.
