The Vancouver Canucks will have a shot at their Northwest Division rival that replaced them at the top of the Western Conference on Monday, but it will only be the first step in their long journey back to the top of the NHL odds board.

Are the Minnesota Wild legit? Are they here to stay? If you’ve asked yourself these questions recently, you’re not alone. The confusion surrounding the No. 1 team in the Western Conference has been spreading since they jumped to the front of the pack in October. Hockey bettors did not see that coming. 

According to Bodog, Minnesota now has 20/1 odds of winning the Stanley Cup. It’s a mark that rivals that of even last year’s Cup runner-up. 

But don’t cue the riot just yet, Vancouver, with months left to play in the season hockey fans can expect the cream to eventually rise to the top. 

Roberto Luongo will find his sweet spot in the crease and finally shed the yips that have cost him his confidence as a No. 1 netminder, if not then Corey Schnider will be there to carry the load. It will not take long for Vancouver to climb from a middle-contender to the top force in the Northwest Division.

Will Monday night’s teaser may be a preview of the battle we can expect later on this season or in the NHL playoffs. If not, it will definitely be an entertaining NHL matchup.
