With the potential for a late-season push to the playoffs, the futures value for this preseason favorite presents a great buying window.
With the Eastern Conference playoff picture set but for the seeding, all eyes have shifted to the Western Conference, in particular whether or not the Vegas Golden Knights will miss the postseason for the first time in their existence.
While Vegas doesn’t have a particularly easy schedule, the Knights do have two very winnable games against the Blackhawks and Sharks that bookend a must-win showdown with Dallas on the road. Vegas closes out the season in St. Louis, but it’s quite possible that is a meaningless game for the Blues. While Nashville has a bigger cushion than the Stars, the Preds face a daunting final five games against Tampa Bay, Minnesota, Calgary, Colorado and Arizona.
The odds certainly aren’t in Vegas’ favor. MoneyPuck’s playoff odds model has the Knights at 32.8% chance to get into the playoffs. That equates to roughly +205 odds. NHLI via Getty Images
