Anaheim Ducks
US NHL outright odds for the Anaheim Ducks: 10.00 (9/1)
Arizona Coyotes
The Arizona Coyotes haven’t qualified for the playoffs in the past three years, and there’s good reason to believe that they won’t make this year’s either. They’re still early in the process of rebuilding their team and it may take a few seasons still for them to bounce back. They’ve got some solid goaltending in Mike Smith, but the rest of the team doesn’t measure up just yet, making the Coyotes an unpopular pick at online gambling sites.
US NHL outright odds for the Arizona Coyotes: 101.00 (100/1)
Boston Bruins
This off-season the Bruins made more significant changes to their roster than any other team in the league. They traded off a large number of core players, which could be worrying, but to make up for it bulked up their offense with young forwards like Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci.
The Bruins pulled a bold move in changing up their team so drastically. Whether or not they will make the playoffs is still uncertain, and fans of top US sports betting sites should be cautious when putting money on them.
US NHL outright odds for the Boston Bruins: 23.00 (22/1)
Buffalo Sabres
The Buffalo Sabres had an embarrassingly bad 2014/15 season, but their strong off-season suggests that they’re on their way to becoming a playoff-worthy team. They’ve added some new young players to their offense and defense who have the potential to work well with the team’s veterans. That said, if their goaltending doesn’t improve, they won’t stand a chance this year, which places them at the bottom of NHL hockey betting lines.
US NHL outright odds for the Buffalo Sabres: 101.00 (100/1)
Carolina Hurricanes
The Carolina Hurricanes are widely considered the team to most avoid when doing NHL betting online. Their 2014/15 was largely forgettable and with little change to their roster during off-season, hockey fans and fans of internet betting in US should expect this season to be no different. Don’t expect many wins from the Hurricanes this year, or any year until they start properly rebuilding their team.
US NHL outright odds for the Carolina Hurricanes: 151.00 (150/1)
Chicago Blackhawks
Even with the roster changes, there is no question about it: The Blackhawks are the clear favorites to win this year’s Cup. As such, they’re also on the top of the list of every site offering online gambling in the US, and should be at the top of your list too when making your NHL betting picks!
US NHL outright odds for the Chicago Blackhawks: 9.00 (8/1)
Colorado Avalanche
While their performance last season was disappointing, bet on it being an anomaly. This year they’ve got a number of talented forwards, including Matt Duchene and Nathan MacKinnon, an improved defense, and a strong goalie, all of which is edging them up the NHL hockey betting lines.
US NHL outright odds for the Colorado Avalanche: 41.00 (40/1)
Columbus Blue Jackets
US NHL outright odds for the Columbus Blue Jackets: 29.00 (28/1)
