Indeed, bettors can already decide on the Mise-o-jeu site as to the identity of the next champions of the National Hockey League.

At odds of 5.00, the “Avs” start in the driver's seat, but the Leafs aren't far behind at 9.00.

The Carolina Hurricanes (10.00), Florida Panthers (11.00) and Tampa Bay Lightning (11.00) are also well received by observers, even though the regular schedule will only begin on October 12.

The Edmonton Oilers could return 15 times the bet if they get their hands on the silver bowl.

As for the Montreal Canadiens, holder of the last place in the general classification in 2021-2022, they are not the most neglected formation despite the odds of 150.00 associated with them for a win in the 2023 final.

The Arizona Coyotes (300.00) are the worst rated club by the betting platform, ahead of the Chicago Blackhawks (200.00). For their part, the San Jose Sharks and the Seattle Kraken are entitled to the same evaluation as the Habs.
