Why now’s not the time to bet on the Leafs

The Maple Leafs are one of the most popular teams in the league. The prices for the 2022/2023 season have been inflated in recent seasons. Bookmakers adjust the odds to encourage betting elsewhere. AI doesn't take previous history into account when sourcing information. It's not worth it to bet on the Maple Leaf.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are the second favourite team to win the Stanley Cup this season.

The public money suggests the Toronto Maple Leafs have the best chance to make it out of the Eastern Conference and advance to the Stanley Cup Final. Toronto hasn't won a playoff series in 18 years and haven't skated in a Conference Final since the 2001-2002 season.

The Maple Leafs are the second favourite to win the Presidents' Trophy.

The door is wide open for the Toronto Maple Leafs to win the Atlantic Division this season. Florida and Tampa have the long game in mind and Boston has some big-time injury concerns. Ottawa Senators are also a contender.

Patience is the best advice for someone looking to bet on the Leafs this season. Right now, there's not much value in the way of value. Instead, it would be wise to attack the in-season futures market.
