The Ottawa Senators finished 27 points out of a playoff spot last season. The betting markets see them getting 75 points this next season, but it's not clear how much better they'll be.

The books have Ottawa's season point over/under line set at 87.5. I think they're going to be considerably better with Alex DeBrincat, Claude Giroux and Cam Talbot. The Lightning, Panthers, Leafs, Bruins, and Bruins still exist, Detroit and Buffalo should be better, so the row ahead is still a tough one to hoe.

There are betting markets on the 2022-23 NHL season. I can't stand betting on player points.

Jack Eichel is over/under 71.5 points in the 2022-23 NHL season.

Jack Eichel is a good player, but he's not a top-level player. He's a healthy player who's on the number one power play unit of the Vegas Golden Knights. His current line is worth 71.5 points.

Kasperi Kapanen scored 20 goals for the Toronto Maple Leafs a few years ago. He's coming off a rocky couple of seasons but has had a proper summer to prepare for a full normal season. Kasperi has a two-year contract and is 26 years old.

Patrik Laine scored 26 goals in 56 games last season. He has a unique scoring ability and will be joined by Johnny Gaudreau this year.

Alex Ovechkin had another casual 50 goals last season. Ovi will score like 42 this season, according to betting markets.

The New York Islanders are the favorite to win the title. The Red Wings are a whole new team with a lot of new players. Bruins start without Brad Marchand and Charlie MacAvoy. Dallas Stars are -172 to make the playoffs and +145 to miss the playoff. Rangers are third in odds to won the Metro behind Carolina and Pittsburgh. The Rangers division win would pay you +325. NHL betting markets see the 2022-23 NHL season. They're - 172 to get to the postseason and -145 for missing the tournament. It's a tough division.

Owen Power is not the Calder Trophy favourite, but he might be the best bet at +500.

Cale Makar is the favourite for the Norris. He plays in the hottest media market. Victor Hedman, Roman Josi and Adam Fox are the other players who are considered good bets.
