The Edmonton Oilers were a +3000 long shot to win the 2009 Stanley Cup. These odds would pay out $3000 for every $100 bet.
One of the premiere hockey handicappers, Ron Raymond, believes the Edmonton Oilers 2009 Stanley Cup odds are worth a look, especially as part of a "hedging" opportunity that Raymond previously discussed in conjunction with the Toronto Maple Leafs and a few other noteworthy teams.
"One thing I love about a Kevin Lowe hockey team, they play hard and leave everything they have on the ice! When you look at this Oilers team, you have to remember, they play in a Canadian City, so you're always going to have an energized home crowd and when a Canadian team is not winning, the pressure the players, coaches and management go through is good for the futures shareholders, as management will not sit around, they will move and get things done.
"I really like this goaltending duo of Roloson and Garon; as both players can be starters anywhere in this league. Furthermore, if the Oilers make the playoffs, they have some good playoff grinders like Penner, Cole, and Staios who will not shy away from the rough stuff. Playoff hockey is about fear, winning every shift and goaltending, the Oilers are a bit above average in all 3 of these categories."
