NHL Betting: Ottawa Senators Dangerous
Are the Ottawa Senators a legitimate contender out of the Eastern Conference this season? Don’t let the NHL betting line fool you, despite coming in with just 45/1 odds of winning the Stanley Cup this season, they’ve held on to a playoff berth for much of the year.
With an unpredictable Northeast Division still relatively wide open, the Sens are in a favorable position to hang on for one of the final postseason openings. In order to get there, however, they’ll have to show any potential threats around them that they’re willing to fight for the cause.
This Tuesday the Sens will make the trip south for battle with the Tampa Bay Lightning, a similarly disenchanted franchise capable of rallying late in the season for one of the last remaining East seeds.
Will Jason Spezza and Daniel Alfredsson, joined by third-year defenseman Erik Karlsson, be able to wipe last season’s dismal campaign from memory with a return to spring hockey?
More than anything, what’s plagued Ottawa on the NHL betting line has been a lack of consistency. The team hasn’t qualified for postseason berths in consecutive seasons since 2007.
Is this the year the boys in the nation’s capital reposition themselves as Stanley Cup contenders? Bet on the NHL today.
