Bookmakers give Flames 40-1 odds of winning Stanley Cup in 2017

Sidney Crosby and the boys are the favourites to repeat as Cup champs at 8-1, followed closely by 2015 Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks and the Presidents’ Trophy winning Washington Capitals, each at 10-1. The San Jose Sharks, who lost in the Final, have been given a 14-1 chance of getting the job done next year.
