Odds via theScore Bet
The Panthers are co-favorites, alongside the Stars, to repeat at +900, an implied probability of 10%. Florida was +1800 at the start of the 2023-24 season.
The Oilers are still licking their wounds, but there's no reason to believe they can't make another run next year. They are +1000, alongside the 2023-24 preseason favorite Hurricanes.
How are we feeling about next year, Maple Leafs fans? Oddsmakers are giving the blue and white a 5.9% chance of ending their 58-year drought after what could be a turbulent offseason in Toronto.
The Golden Knights, Bruins, and Canucks are also in that Panthers sweet spot from +1600 to +2000. Boston already started its offseason moves by trading Linus Ullmark to the Senators.
The yet-to-be-named Utah Hockey Club, formerly the Arizona Coyotes, are +7500 in their first year playing out of Salt Lake City.
Chances look bleak for the Ducks, Blue Jackets, and Sharks, with implied odds of 0.3%.
