Fam, the last time we posted Bodog’s NHL odds, the Washington Capitals were a Stanley Cup, Eastern Conference, and Metropolitan Division favorite.
Since then, the Capitals have played even better. So let’s check in on the updated odds.
First, let’s take a look at the Metropolitan Division odds, where in real life, the Caps have a 15-point lead over the New York Rangers with two games in hand. In December, the Caps had 3/2 odds along with the Rags.
(Note: Metro Division is off the board due to Caps’ big lead)

Oh my.
So the Caps are so good they essentially broke this category. Sounds good to me!
Next up is the Eastern Conference, where the Caps hold a 11-point lead over Florida with two games in hand. The Caps’ odds had been 13/4. It’s improved.
