One of the boldest (and potentially luckiest) wagers you can make in pro sports is predicting which teams will reach their respective championship.

Not only is it difficult to predict one team to reach the championship, but predicting the actual match up is incredibly hard.

Tonight, the NHL Draft Lottery will take place and while teams are looking towards their next franchise player, there is hopefully a championship to be won in 2020.

Naming the finalists is never easy but there are odds out for which teams will meet in the Stanley Cup.

The Boston Bruins are arguably the best team in the NHL, so it’s no surprise they have one of the best odds to reach the Stanley Cup. However, predicting their opponent is never easy. According to 10Bet, a final showdown between the Bruins and Vegas Golden Knights is listed at +1700.

Tampa Bay is another strong candidate to reach the Stanley Cup finals in 2020. While they have a history of choking in the playoffs, they are still at +1700 to reach the finals alongside the Vegas Golden Knights.

Tampa Bay, Boston, and Vegas are three teams well-liked by bettors and analysts, but hockey fans know the best team doesn’t always win.

The Colorado Avalanche is another popular pick to come out of the Western Conference. Again, while you may be correct in choosing the Avs to reach the finals, the bet is lost if you cannot select the right Eastern Conference team. This type of bet is one of the riskier types in terms of odds and probability, but the payoff could be great.
