Surprising News Emerges About Vancouver Canucks' Stanley Cup Playoff Odds

Now that the majority of the roster is built for the start of the 2025-26 season, which included the addition of Evander Kane via a trade with the Edmonton Oilers, the Vancouver Canucks can begin to look towards training camp and start thinking about potential line combos and defensive pairings they could roll out.

After a difficult 2024-25 campaign which saw the club miss out on the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Vancouver Canucks are determined to make it back to the postseason with their entire roster fully healthy, Evander Kane added to the group and Brock Boeser sticking around for the next seven years, which should give them a big offensive boost.

In recent weeks, Vancouver's chances of winning the Stanley Cup and also taking home the Pacific Division title have been released and on Friday, the Canucks' postseason odds were finally announced.

In a social media post on Friday evening, PlayNow Sports released their updated odds when it comes to the Vancouver Canucks making the Stanley Cup Playoffs, winning the Pacific Division, becoming Western Conference champions, as well as taking home hockey's greatest trophy.

For their odds to win the Stanley Cup, those come in at +7000, while to take home the Pacific Division title and become the winner of the Western Conference sit at +1200 and +2200, respectively.

In regards to Vancouver's odds of making it back to the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2024, PlayNow Sports have it at -130 that they won't be in the big dance, which is a bit of a shock considering the moves the club as made this summer, along with players like Elias Pettersson, Thatcher Demko and Filip Chytil returning to full health.

As was the case before the 2023-24 campaign, when everyone wrote them off and they went on to win the Pacific Division, the Vancouver Canucks are underdogs and will have to prove everyone wrong once again, something the organization is more than happy to do as they chase their first Stanley Cup in franchise history.
