Now that the Montreal Canadiens have stunned the defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins and grabbed a place in the Eastern Conference finals, the online sports betting world turns its attention to the other Easter Conference semifinal match-up that sees a scrambling Philadelphia Flyer team push their series against the Boston Bruins to a deciding game seven. The NHL betting on the Flyers almost stopped when the regular season did. The Flyers were battling with the likes of Boston and Montreal to see who would grab the final few playoff spots in the Eastern Conference, and where everyone would finish. The Stanley Cup odds were 15 to 1 on Philly winning the Stanley Cup when the season started. Goalie injuries and inconsistent play pushed the Flyers to 30 to 1 by the time the playoffs started, which made them the least likely team to win the Cup of the remaining playoff participants. |
