A dominant run of play has put the Washington Capitals back atop the latest Stanley Cup odds list.

The Capitals - who won 12 of 15 games in January - now sit first in the NHL standings, and by extension have the best odds of being the last team standing in the playoffs, according to Bodog.

Also of note on the list below: the St. Louis Blues - who fired head coach Ken Hitchcock on Wednesday - dropped well down, while the Toronto Maple Leafs made a bit of a leap.

The Capitals, of course, won the Presidents' Trophy last season but were bumped from the playoffs in the second round by Pittsburgh.
