After the Carolina Hurricanes finally broke through to win the Stanley Cup following several seasons of high-level hockey, bookmakers are making them favorites to repeat as champions for the 2026-27 season, with +700 odds.
The Colorado Avalanche (+800) and the 2026 Stanley Cup runner-up Vegas Golden Knights (+850) are immediately behind, followed by the Edmonton Oilers (11-1), Florida Panthers (11-1) and Tampa Bay Lightning (12-1).
The Stanley Cup futures markets are always competitive and the 2026-27 one appears to be no exception, with 12 teams at 25-1 or better. The immediate next tier includes the contending Minnesota Wild (14-1), Dallas Stars (15-1) and Ottawa Senators (16-1), with a small gap before a tier consisting of teams that broke out this season, including the Montreal Canadiens (22-1), Anaheim Ducks (25-1) and Buffalo Sabres (25-1).
The rebuilding Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks occupy the bottom of the Stanley Cup odds board at 500-1 each.
