Summary
The Calgary Flames are shockingly odds-on underdogs for the 2026-27 Stanley Cup at plus 35,000 — a bet of $100 could win you $35,000 — trailing only the Vancouver Canucks at plus 40,000. After a brutal 2025-26 season that ended with a 29th-place finish, the Flames traded away key veterans like Rasmus Andersson, MacKenzie Weegar, and Nazem Kadri to rebuild. With Blake Coleman nearing free agency and a roster full of question marks, the oddsmakers see little hope. Meanwhile, Canadian rivals range from Edmonton at +1,100 to Toronto at +4,000, while the Carolina Hurricanes sit as favorites at +750. The NHL’s new 84-game season kicks off this October — a fresh start for everyone, especially those betting on the Flames to pull off the impossible.
