Futures:
Hurricanes/Islanders over 5.5 games (-140), 1*
Predators to win series (+130), 1*
Bruins to win series (-125), 1*
Bruins to win the Stanley Cup (+1100), 1*
I might add a couple more. Panthers -1.5 games at plus money is interesting. I like the Bruins path this year. The Bruins swept two eastern conference teams in the regular season. Those teams were the Maple Leafs and Panthers. 4-0 against both. Looking at the data in recent years, regular season success or failure against conference opponents carries over more then you think. I think Boston was very fortunate to get Toronto in the first round instead of Tampa based on how the teams match up with each other. If Boston makes the ECF or Stanley Cup Finals, I will have an 11/1 ticket that I can always hedge on if need be.
