Ottawa -½ +120 over Toronto
7:00 PM ET. Regulation only. You know the drill by now. The Leafs win a couple of games, the city goes full parade route, and the oddsmakers line up like it’s the second coming. Meanwhile, those of us paying attention see something different. We see a Senators team that’s been in both games, outshot Toronto in Game 2, and came back from down 2-0 on the road before losing in OT.
Ottawa is very much alive here, and there’s serious value in backing them in regulation at this number. Let’s start with the facts. Game 2 wasn’t a Leafs domination — it was a 3-2 OT win where Toronto was hanging on for dear life. Ottawa controlled large stretches of that game and didn’t look like a team playing its first home playoff date since 2017. They looked like a group that’s finding its legs and confidence, and they’ll be even more dangerous in front of a rabid home crowd on Thursday.
You think Toronto’s just going to waltz in and take a 3-0 stranglehold in a building they haven’t dominated in years? Don’t count on it. This Leafs team is still who they’ve always been: a group that leans heavily on the power play, doesn’t love it when the game gets greasy, and folds when the stakes get weird. And they’re about to walk into a house of hostility.
Craig Berube’s Leafs are buying in defensively — good for them. Blocking shots, paying a price, all that playoff rah-rah stuff. But don’t confuse effort with dominance. Toronto’s 5-on-5 play hasn’t been otherworldly. They’ve capitalized on early chances and some bad Ottawa penalties, but outside of special teams? This is a coin-flip series.
Ottawa isn’t overwhelmed. They’re just green. But that inexperience is fading, and a team with zero pressure on them — down 0-2, back home, nothing to lose — is one of the most dangerous spots on the board. The Leafs are expected to win. The Sens? They’re playing with house money, and they know it.

Tampa Bay -105 over Florida
Let’s stop pretending Sergei Bobrovsky is going to pull off last year’s act again. The guy caught lightning in a bottle last postseason, but the balloon popped the second they hung the banner. Bobrovsky hasn’t looked the same since—he’s back to being the wildly inconsistent, fall-apart-at-any-moment version we’ve seen more often than not, and now he’s staring down a red-hot Lightning offense led by a power play that can tear holes in even the best goalies. He’s not stealing a series, not against this team, and certainly not with Andrei Vasilevskiy staring him down from the other crease.
Vasilevskiy is the single biggest edge in this series, and it’s not remotely close. He’s rounding into Vezina form again, just in time to remind everyone why the Bolts were a dynasty not long ago. Florida might have the Cup pedigree, but they’re still waiting on guys to get back to full health while Tampa's already in playoff gear. This isn't about what Florida could be—it's about what Tampa already is. The Bolts look dialed, dangerous, and grossly undervalued here.

Indiana -6 over Milwaukee
Gainbridge Fieldhouse – Indianapolis, IN
NBA Playoffs – Game 1
1:00 PM ET. Milwaukee catching six in a playoff opener? That’ll draw plenty of attention from casual bettors who still see the Bucks as title contenders on name value alone. That kind of surface-level thinking is exactly what the books are counting on — and exactly why Indiana is the right side.
Let’s cut through the noise. The “Lillard’s absence is being over-accounted for” narrative is a common one, but it misses the bigger picture. This number isn’t just about Dame being sidelined. It’s about what’s left — and how that lines up against a Pacers team that is not only deeper, but stylistically built to create real problems for Milwaukee.
The Bucks live and die by the three — best in the league from deep when they're dialed in — but without Lillard to stretch the defense and create space, they're far more one-dimensional. And when the shots aren’t falling, they crater fast. That’s a huge liability against an Indiana squad that ranks third in FG%, plays with balance, and can score in transition or half-court with equal confidence. They don’t rely on one guy or one run to win games. They just go get buckets.
Now stack that offensive versatility with a 29–11 home record at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, and you’re staring at a team ready to take control. Milwaukee, meanwhile, has been pedestrian on the road and enters this series already wounded. Giannis is still Giannis, and yes, the Bucks have been here before—but that’s also part of the trap. The market is pricing Milwaukee like the team they were, not the team they are today. This number is fair. It’s not inflated—it’s predictive. It says Indiana isn’t just live—they’re ready to throw the first punch. We trust the number. We trust the spot.

New Jersey +240 over Carolina
The Canes are a perennial playoff disappointment, and nothing this season suggests that’s changing. Sure, they coasted into the postseason, but that’s as much about their weak division as it is any actual dominance. Carolina is a shot-attempt machine, but they’ve been spinning their wheels lately, with no clear answer for their power play issues or the loss of Mikko Rantanen, which left a gaping hole in their offense. Their goaltending has been downright brutal this year, ranking 31st, and no matter how much they outshoot opponents, they need a lot more than volume to win playoff games.
On the flip side, New Jersey’s struggled of late, but let’s not forget they’ve been playing without Jack Hughes, their star center, for the rest of the season. The Devils’ defense is elite when healthy—Dougie Hamilton’s back, and their top-six defensemen locked down an NHL-record seven straight games allowing fewer than 20 shots earlier in the season. When they’re firing on all cylinders, they’re tough to crack. With two of the top penalty kills in the league, this is going to be a grind, but New Jersey’s got a much more balanced squad, and I trust their goaltending over Carolina’s mess. At this inflated price, the Devils are a steal—this is a series they can absolutely win.

Ottawa +165 over Toronto
Let the market chase the shiny object—we’ll take the dog with teeth. The Leafs have every edge on paper—but that’s been the case for a decade now, and they’ve got a single playoff series win to show for it. Meanwhile, Ottawa took all three regular season meetings by a combined score of 9-3, holding Toronto to a single goal or less in every game. The Sens may not have the flashy names or gaudy numbers, but what they do have is an identity—heavy, relentless, and built for playoff-style trench warfare.
This is a street fight, not a skills competition, and that’s exactly where Brady Tkachuk thrives. Ottawa’s game is close-quarters, net-front chaos, and it’s tailor-made to drag the Leafs into deep waters they historically drown in. Toronto’s got firepower, no doubt, but their playoff issues aren’t random—they’re systemic. Soft defense, suspect goaltending, and an allergy to greasy goals. If Jake Sanderson and Thomas Chabot can skate them out of trouble and Tkachuk starts stirring the pot early, this thing gets real uncomfortable for the blue and white. The Sens are loose, dangerous, and playing with house money—exactly the kind of team Toronto hates facing.

Dallas +135 over Colorado
The Avs carry the brand-name recognition, but this version of Colorado isn’t the same wagon that rolled to a Cup in 2022. Depth is an issue, the defense hasn’t been as sharp, and Dallas quietly beats them across the board in every key metric. The Stars finished with more goals per game, fewer goals against, and a deeper, more balanced attack that doesn’t rely on one or two guys to carry the mail. They’re fast, structured, and nasty to play against—everything you want in a playoff side.
Dallas also enters this series healthy and loaded, with Tyler Seguin back in the mix and the best top-nine forward group in the Western Conference. Colorado still leans too heavily on its stars, and that’s a dangerous game when facing a team that can roll four lines and suffocate you at both ends. The Stars have been built for this kind of run—they’re tough, experienced, and completely unafraid of the Avalanche mystique. At +135, Dallas is flat-out the better value and arguably the better team.

L.A. Kings +110 over Edmonton
Edmonton's flash has fooled people before, and it'll do it again. Yes, McDavid and Draisaitl can tilt the ice, but hockey isn't a two-man show, especially in the playoffs where grit and structure win the day. The Kings aren’t intimidated—they’ve seen this movie before and they’ve been sharpening their game since the trade deadline, going 17-4-0 in that span. They’ve got the NHL’s second-stingiest defense, a penalty kill that can handle business, and a goaltender in Darcy Kuemper who’s been here and done that with a Cup ring to prove it.
This isn’t last year’s L.A. squad that bowed out quietly—this group is deeper, hungrier, and significantly better in net. Edmonton’s Stuart Skinner has been shaky at best, and against a disciplined Kings side that doesn’t beat itself, that’s a glaring problem. L.A. went 31-5-4 at home this year, the best home mark in the league, and they’re built to frustrate a run-and-gun team like the Oilers. The public will line up to back the star power, but the Kings are the better team—and at +115, we’ll gladly step in and play execution over hype.

Vegas in -2½ Games +190 over Minnesota
The Wild were 22 seconds away from missing the playoffs altogether—that speaks volumes. Now they’re being asked to hang with a Vegas team that’s deeper, more structured, and absolutely manhandled them this season, outscoring them 9-2 in the last two meetings. The Golden Knights quietly rank top five in the league in goals per game, and while they don’t get the same headlines as some other contenders, they’re built like a wrecking crew with a strong PP to boot.
Minnesota has one show-stopper in Kirill Kaprizov, and not much else, and he missed much of the season with injury. They finished 25th in scoring, their power play is bottom-third, and their goaltending is average on a good night. Vegas, meanwhile, has the second-best power play in the NHL, a top-four defense, and far more offensive depth at every position. There’s a massive talent gap here, and this number is begging to be hit. Knights to win the series in a walk at +190 is a bet dripping with value.

St. Louis +185 over Winnipeg
The price here dictates the play, full stop. Winnipeg is a damn good team—nobody’s denying that—and they’ve got the best goaltender in the league right now, which makes fading them feel like walking into traffic. But this Blues squad isn’t limping into the playoffs—they’re red-hot, going 19-4-2 down the stretch while playing must-win games every night. That’s not a small sample, that’s two months of playoff-level hockey, and it’s built a level of urgency and cohesion that Winnipeg hasn’t needed to tap into… yet.
The Jets are the more “complete” team on paper, but this game isn’t played on paper—it’s played on adrenaline, execution, and belief. The last time these two met, Winnipeg won 3-1, but that came with the Blues starting backup Joel Hofer in net. Jordan Binnington gets the nod here, and say what you want about his antics, but the man shows up when it matters. This series might go six or seven, but the value lies squarely with a peaking Blues side that’s been living in playoff mode since February.
