2025 Stanley Cup Finals Prediction & Picks

With pre-series markets still available, we know that fans are out for more than just a singular 2025 Stanley Cup Finals prediction. Don’t worry - we’ve got you covered; we’ll share 2025 Stanley Cup Finals picks for both the overall series and tonight’s Panthers vs. Oilers Game 1.

First up, the futures markets. To spoil who we think wins the series overall, which we’ll share the odds for coming up, we have the Oilers getting their revenge. Connor McDavid and company nearly pulled off the remarkable reverse sweep last year, and we believe that it’s now time for arguably the best skater of all time to finally hoist the Cup.

For even better value, although nearly even odds for Edmonton coming out on top is great, we’d suggest taking the Oilers in 4-2 fashion with +550 odds at Caesars. For a more conservative approach, having the series to just go to six games with either team winning still nets you +200 odds.

As for a 2025 Stanley Cup Finals prediction for Game 1 tonight, we’re actually focused on the Panthers. Starting out on the road is providing us with some extra value in terms of the player prop markets. In that regard, we’re focusing on Florida’s captain.

We’d suggest taking Aleksander Barkov to record an assist tonight (+100 at Caesars), as he’s had 11 in 17 playoff games so far this year. Consider the same prop for Matthew Tkachuk as well, as he’s tied for the team lead.

Who Is Favored To Win The 2025 Stanley Cup?

As you’d expect with a 2025 Stanley Cup Finals rematch of one that went a full seven games just last season, it feels like a virtual toss-up as to who will hoist Lord Stanley. So, if you want to make a 2025 Stanley Cup Finals prediction for the outright winner rather than one for just Game 1, it could be a tough one:

The Edmonton Oilers are just very slight favorites to win the 2025 Stanley Cup Finals with -120 odds at Caesars over the Florida Panthers (+100).
