With less than a month to go before the NHL trade deadline, Bodog has released their updated odds on the favorites to win the 2015 Stanley Cup, with a trio of Western Conference teams leading the pack.
The league-leading Anaheim Ducks and the Chicago Blackhawks lead the way, followed by the St. Louis Blues and then a bevy of Eastern Conference foes.
Of note, the Nashville Predators - currently tied with the Ducks at 70 points - come in at tenth, while the defending champion Los Angeles Kings provide better odds than no fewer than four teams currently ahead of them in the Western Conference standings.
The best value in the East may be the Washington Capitals at 25/1.
