This page tracks the 2027 Stanley Cup odds for all 32 teams. The board just got shaken up. Florida landed Brady Tkachuk to pair with brother Matthew, and the Panthers shot up into a tie for the top spot.

It’s now a three-team race. Florida and Colorado sit at +700 on FanDuel, with the champion Hurricanes right there at +750. The trade turned a two-horse top tier into a logjam.

Below you’ll find the latest 2027 NHL Stanley Cup odds, the top contenders, and an odds movement timeline that we’ll update through free agency, training camp, and the season.

Odds reflect live FanDuel and DraftKings markets as of June 22, after the Brady Tkachuk trade. We update this board as prices move all summer through free agency. Sign up at FanDuel Sportsbook to bet on the 2027 Stanley Cup winner.

Florida’s +700 price at FanDuel translates to a 12.5% implied probability of winning the Cup. Colorado matches that number, and Carolina is just behind at +750 (11.8%). Three teams, basically even.

The books don’t fully agree. FanDuel has Florida and Colorado tied on top, while DraftKings still lists Carolina first at +750. Ottawa, which traded Tkachuk away, dropped all the way to +2000.

2027 Stanley Cup Contenders

Here’s a look at the top of the 2027 board and why each team sits where it does:

Florida Panthers (+700)

The new co-favorites, and don’t forget who they are. Florida won back-to-back Cups in 2024 and 2025 and reached three straight Finals before a brutal 2026. Barkov tore his ACL and MCL on the first day of camp and missed the whole season, and the banged-up Panthers went 40-38-4 and missed the playoffs.

Now Barkov is healthy and Brady joins Matthew up front. The Panthers gave up four picks but didn’t lose a top-7 scorer. A rested, loaded roster is why the books moved them to the top so fast.

Colorado Avalanche (+700)

Colorado won the Presidents’ Trophy in 2026 before getting swept by Vegas in the conference final. The talent is still elite, led by Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar.

The Avs are tied for the top spot on most books. They’re the safe bet to be near the top again all season.

Carolina Hurricanes (+750)

The champs are right there. Carolina won 16 of 19 playoff games in 2026, the fewest games needed to win the Cup since the 1988 Oilers. Most of the core is locked up.

Rookie goalie Brandon Bussi changed everything in net. If he carries his playoff form into a full season, the Canes can go back-to-back.

The Chasing Pack

The next tier is crowded. Tampa Bay (+1100), Edmonton (+1100) and runner-up Vegas (+1100) are bunched together, with Minnesota (+1300) just behind.

Ottawa is the big mover the other way. Trading Brady Tkachuk dropped the Senators to +2000, well outside the top tier.

Recent Stanley Cup Winners

Carolina is the new champ, with two titles 20 years apart (2006 and 2026). The last repeat champ was Florida, which won back-to-back in 2024 and 2025 before missing the 2026 playoffs.

The Canes will try to buck that trend. History says it’s hard, and now they share the top of the board with Florida and Colorado.

NHL Teams Searching for Their First Stanley Cup

Ten franchises are still chasing their first Cup. Vancouver and Buffalo have come closest, each with multiple Final trips but no title. Utah and Seattle are the newcomers still building toward a run.

Canadian Stanley Cup Winners

Canada’s Cup drought hit 33 years this spring. Montreal came closest in 2026, reaching the conference final before Carolina ended the run. The last Canadian champ was the 1993 Canadiens.
