Probability odds of winning Stanley Cup Playoffs
The NHL playoffs and the quest for Lord Stanley's cup is in full swing.
The Tampa Bay Lightning, who are expected by many to hoist the Cup at the end of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, are the top team on the board at 33.0 percent probability odds, but what are the chances the other fifteen teams?
The Calgary Flames and Washington Capitals are the only other two teams with better than 10 percent probability, per SportsLine, and they're about half of that of the Lightning.
Things get dicey quickly from there, as only the Toronto Maple Leafs and San Jose Sharks bring better than five-percent odds.
