2024 NHL Stanley Cup odds: Panthers favored in Game 7; Will McDavid win Conn Smythe?

The 2024 Stanley Cup is headed for Game 7. 

Ahead of the championship tilt between the Florida Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers, the Panthers were slight favorites to hoist Lord Stanley at -130. 

However, after outscoring the Oilers 11-4 in the first three games of the series and taking a 3-0 lead, the Panthers saw their odds dip all the way to -2500 to win the Stanley Cup.

But it’s not over ‘til it’s over. 

The Oilers bounced back in dominant fashion in Game 4, crushing Florida by a score of 8-1. 

Then, in Game 5, Edmonton emerged with a hard-fought 5-3 win on Florida’s home ice, forcing the series back to Edmonton for Game 6.

In that Game 6, the Oilers won 5-1, meaning they’ve outscored the Panthers 18-5 over the past three games.

Despite losing three straight, Florida is still favored to win Game 7 on its home ice.

Let’s dive into the latest NHL title and Conn Smythe odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of June 24.

As for the Conn Smythe Trophy — awarded to the Most Valuable Player in the NHL postseason — it appears that Connor McDavid could win the award whether his team wins or loses.

Prior to Game 4, Florida goalie Sergei Bobrovsky was at -380 to win the award, followed by Panthers center Aleksander Barkov (+380) and McDavid (+1600).
