With only a few regular season games left on the schedules of all teams, we\u2019ve pretty much the idea of which teams are going to get in and which are bound for an early vacation.

That\u2019s not bad. But if you\u2019re the Capitals, who\u2019ve been so accustomed to getting on a prolonged win streak, those four losses definitely says something about the team\u2019s drop in form.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the Caps are still heads and shoulders above everyone else in the NHL, let alone in the Metropolitan division. The Presidents&#8217; Trophy is there for the taking by the Caps, who are sitting on <a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/nhl\/futures\" target=\"_blank\">+400<\/a> odds to take home the Stanley Cup Trophy.<\/p>\n<h3>Los Angeles Kings<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-100705\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/LAK.jpg\" alt=\"NHL Stanley Cup Odds Updated - March 22, 2016\" width=\"600\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/LAK.jpg 600w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/LAK-250x176.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hockey fans know that over the past few seasons, the Kings can turn into an unstoppable animal once the playoffs set in.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s Kings look no different. They\u2019ve been money in the bank this month, going 7-2 in their first nine March games. To make a point that they\u2019re going to be a force to reckon with moving forward, the Kings beat Chicago and Dallas on the road then went back home to smash the Rangers and Boston over their last four games. The Kings are priced at <a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/nhl\/futures\" target=\"_blank\">+1,000<\/a> to win their third Stanley Cup title since 2012 this year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/9\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\">Create a betting account now<\/a>\u00a0and cash in on all the NHL action.<\/p>\n<h3>Sleeper<\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"Heading3Char\">Pittsburgh Penguins<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>No, the Penguins are not sleepers. Not with the talent they have on their roster and the way they\u2019re playing lately. We\u2019re calling them sleepers because they\u2019re priced like one. At <a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/nhl\/futures\" target=\"_blank\">+1,800<\/a> odds to win their second Stanley Cup title in the Sidney Crosby era, the Penguins look like a steal for that price.<\/p>\n<p>The Pens are not going to catch the Caps atop the Metropolitan Division, but the momentum they have right now tells how fearsome this Pittsburgh team is going to be in the postseason. They\u2019re currently on a six-game win streak, which includes a convincing 6-2 beatdown of Washington on March 20.<\/p>\n<h3>Long Shot<\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"Heading3Char\">New Jersey Devils<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The only consistent thing for the Devils lately is their inconsistency. They\u2019ve alternated wins and losses over their last five games. The Devils defeated Los Angeles on March 12 in overtime, 2-1, and then made a trip to Honda Center, where they were blown into smithereens by Anaheim, 7-1. The got back up with a 7-4 win in Minnesota to restore their sanity before bowing out to Columbus on the road, 6-3. Their most recent outing had the Devils avenging their loss to the Blue Jackets with a 2-1 win at home.<\/p>\n<p>The Devils are going to need a miracle to make it to the postseason, as they\u2019re six points behind of Detroit for the second and last wild card ticket in the Eastern Conference. Even Lucifer is unlikely to put his money on the Devils, but anything can still happen in the NHL. The Devils are pegged at <a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/nhl\/futures\" target=\"_blank\">+12,500<\/a> to win the Stanley Cup this season.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/19\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-89566 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/NHL-Banner-1MB.gif\" alt=\"NHL-Banner-1MB\" width=\"620\" height=\"110\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NHL postseason is looming.
