If you ask most hockey fan's chances are most of them will tell you the best part of hockey is the Stanley Cup playoffs.
32 teams battle hard for 82 games, with 16 teams moving on just to compete for the Stanley Cup. However there's some teams with better chances to win then others especially teams like the Boston Bruins who ran through the entire League this season, setting a record for most wins all times in the regular season.
The Athletic just released their annual list of the team's odds of winning the Stanley Cup. No surprise the Boston Bruins are number one, and Colorado Avalanche were number two, which leaves the number three team and that was our Edmonton Oilers.
The Oilers look to build off last year's run and hopefully bring a Stanley Cup back to Canada, something that hasn't been done since the Montreal Canadiens did back in 1993 beating Wayne Gretzky and the Los Angeles Kings.
