The Stanley Cup Playoffs begin Saturday, and no team has really set itself apart from the pack this year.

The Carolina Hurricanes are technically favored at +600 to win, according to BetMGM Sportsbook. At this point in the season, that price doesn’t really represent a clear edge compared to the field.

With no one priced better than +600 and six teams priced between in the +600 to +800 range, this year’s battle for the Stanley Cup is as wide open as we’ve seen in a decade.

After the Hurricanes, we have the Panthers at +700, the Stars at +750, and the Rangers, Oilers and Avalanche all priced at +800.

According to Sports Odds History, this is the highest-priced favorite entering round one of the playoffs in more than 10 years, with the closest comparison being in 2011-12, when the Rangers were +550 entering the playoffs.

It’s at least a little surprising that the Rangers aren’t favored by anyone to win the Stanley Cup, considering they were the Presidents’ Trophy winner during the regular season.

But as Post-Action Betting’s Michael Leboff pointed out, the Rangers are just +1 in goal differential in 5-on-5, with strong power play and penalty kill carrying them most of the way.

Another piece of this equation is projected matchups within the playoff bracket, which is largely division-based.

This makes for some shoddy matchups for some teams; for instance, the Oilers get particularly favorable matchups, avoiding the triumvirate of the Stars, Golden Knights, and Avalanche in the West until the conference finals.

Meanwhile, the Panthers have a tougher road, having to go through the Tampa Bay Lightning, as well as the Maple Leafs-Bruins winner.

The tough draw for the Panthers hasn’t had much effect on their odds, though, they’ve been hovering around +650 and +700 for the better part of a month at BetMGM.
