Atlantic Division Contenders
There are four top contenders to win the Atlantic Division in the NHL this season. The two favorites are the Florida Panthers and Toronto Maple Leafs. Florida has won the Eastern Conference two years in a row and is understandably among the favorites in the division. Meanwhile, the Maple Leafs are right there with the Panthers in the standings to start the year, as the Leafs have dominated their opponents at home North of the border early in the season.
Just behind the Panthers and Leafs in the Atlantic Division title odds are the Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning. These teams have not been able to get the job done in the postseason in recent years, hence the skepticism that they can outperform the Panthers and Leafs in the standings. But both teams are still within striking distance and they have proven that they have the talent to shoot up the standings by going on a run at some point as the season wears on.
2024-25 Atlantic Division Longshots
Every other team in the Atlantic Division has odds of over +2000 to win the division title. The Buffalo Sabres, Montreal Canadiens, Detroit Red Wings, and Ottawa Senators could all go on a run and swipe this division title from the top-four teams listed above. But a lot would have to go right for that to happen and for the favorites to fail to get their hands on the top spot in what should be a highly entertaining division all year long.
Both Montreal and Ottawa have been especially disappointing this season. They are in the mix to finish this season with the worst record in the NHL, along with the Chicago Blackhawks, San Jose Sharks, and Anaheim Ducks. It will be interesting to see how those teams evolve as the season goes on, but things are looking bleak for them.
