Article posted on Tuesday 30 January - 04:49 EST
Now it gets serious. The NHL All-Star break has come and gone, and as the league's 31 teams get back to work, the grind to find a playoff spot grows more tense. The Chicago Blackhawks have been ever presents in postseason play since the 2008-09 season, winning three Stanley Cups over that span of time, but if the playoffs were to begin today they would not be participants.
OK, you've picked your Stanley Cup winner and placed your wager. But you're not done yet. In fact, the betting is only beginning. Study these various Stanley Cup final prop bets and have at it. You'll be glad you did.
The Nashville Predators are the first 16th-overall seed to reach the Stanley Cup final and the first bottom-seeded team to reach the final since the 1967 NHL expansion. So do they have any chance at all against the Pittsburgh Penguins?
If you want to talk about trends and mortal locks, then you are talking about the Anaheim Ducks in Game 5 of a playoff series at the Honda Center. The Ducks have won seven in a row when playing in that scenario.
The Anaheim Ducks had the Nashville Predators down in Game 3 of the Western Conference final but couldn't take them out, as Nashville rallied for a 2-1 win and the club's 10th straight playoff victory on home ice at Bridgestone Arena.
Last spring, the Pittsburgh Penguins came out of nowhere to win the Stanley Cup. You could make the same suggestion this spring regarding the Nashville Predators. Both teams flew under the radar but came to life when it mattered most.
