Red Wings' odds to win 2019 Stanley Cup at 75-1

The Detroit News

This Detroit Red Wings rebuild might take some time.

The Red Wings have gone two straight seasons without making the playoffs, after a streak of 25 straight postseasons, and it doesn't look good that they'll avoid a third straight season of early vacation plans.

Dylan Larkin and the Detroit Red Wings own 75-1 odds to win the 2019 Stanley Cup, according to sports betting site Bovada.

Granted, it's not an indicator of making the playoffs, but sports betting site Bovada's opening Stanley Cup odds aren't kind of the Red Wings, who own 75-1 odds to win their first Stanley Cup since 2007-08.

Sixteen teams make the NHL playoffs. Only three teams — the Arizona Coyotes (80-1), Vancouver Canucks (80-1) and Ottawa Senators (100-1) face longer odds to win the Stanley Cup.

The Tampa Bay Lightning are the favorites, at 9-1. The Washington Capitals, who defeated the expansion Vegas Golden Knights to win their first Stanley Cup, own 14-1 odds, just eighth on Bovada's list.

Last year, the Wings opened with 66-1 odds to win the Cup, according to Bovada, and that was better than odds provided by the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook and VegasInsider.com, which gave Detroit 100-1 odds.

The Red Wings finished last season at 30-39-13. They own the No. 6 pick in the NHL draft, to be held June 22-23 in Dallas.
