Hour two overdrive continues, powered by FanDuel, bringing you more ways to play your game your way. Best bets later in the hour. Mike Johnson here in a few moments. As the NHL's gotta get through one more weekend and then it's go time, and today is futures day actually on the FanDuel Sportsbook app. I'm looking at some futures. And um I mean, it's always difficult to get a read on the board before you've played a game. Right? But they have Florida as the odds on favorite to win the Stanley Cup. Plus six fifty. Goes Florida, Colorado, Carolina, Edmonton, Washington at five.
Washington's starting to get some love. I we ha my son had a um you know what is that called? Like a pool that they did yesterday.
Fantasy pool, yeah.
Yeah, and I was helping I took the Protish kit. There's two of them Which one? Uh Alexi, the the there's two mutants. Yeah. There's two mutants. But man oh man, like they're they've got some choices there. Like that Kairu's there now, that Ryan Leonard who signed the extension, like I'm
not fully buying into it, but there's a chance they could put it together and be real good. I'm not sold on it yet.
Like them being ahead of Vegas, Tampa, Dallas, Minnesota, Montreal. Like I that to me is way too much. I'll tell you a
game that'll be it like if they're both a little bit surly. Either Florida goes to Wash or Wash goes to Tampa to set a tone. I'll I'm watching that game dude.
Those are heavy teams, man. Like that washing if you take a look at the size of the forwards of that group, they're monsters. Like PLD like you look at that, they're monsters. Big, big Tom Wilson. Like the Washington got bigger and beefier, but they got skilled too. So be interesting to see what you
see them though as like the second best team in the East? Third best team in the East. Yeah. No, they they
they could turn into it. It's just That's gotta work there too. They had like Toronto level changes. They had a lot of changes. Right. And it just doesn't work immediately. There's a chance it could work out, but I'm not handing it to them yet. I I
think there's just you know what, somebody is sniffing around it. Like you don't throw those odds out like you know what I mean? Like somebody the somebody's sniffing around going, I we don't want that team to be a long shot because people would put money on that. Like that that's the one. I think you're right.
And like let's not forget two years ago they were the number one seed in the East.
Yeah.
Like they won the East two years ago.
Here's the middle of the ice there. Dubois into Strome into Prodish. Like that th those guys are monsters.
Like Dubois, what Du Bois what Du Bois are you gonna get? Well and
Tuck is
there too. What tuck are you gonna get?
Listen, uh on paper Really good team. Like, you know, you go Tuck into Dubois into Wilson. Ovechkin, Strom, Leonard, Protish, Prodish, Cairo. Boone Jenner is there on the fourth line. Another big strong. What does the
defense
look like though?
Uh let's see what we got here. Chicken. That Nicholas that Waugh. Yeah. That Waugh defenseman, right shot, February. Uh your buddy Liligren, I believe, is there and they signed day or an A as well.
That's their problem right there. That's not a cup where you're gonna be a good thing.
Good player, good offensive player. Yeah. Uh Matt Waugh is good too.
Here's Mike Johnson, our TSN hockey analyst. Johnny, we're talking about the uh FanDuel Sportsbook app here and you know, the odds on to win the cup. And uh as of right now, the top five is Florida, Colorado, Carolina, Edmonton, Washington. Technically Washington and Vegas are tied, eleven to one odds. What w like Washington clearly sticks out there, do they not, compared to the other teams?
Well, I I think they are where they are because of the division they play in. A lot like Vegas. Like they're good teams, but their path is the easiest to the conference final. Then you're one series away from being in the final. You guys maybe Washington's not the consensus second best team in the East, but I think they're the consensus second best team in the Metro.
