The 2022 Stanley Cup Final pits two of the best teams in the NHL against each other as they vie for the league championship. The Colorado Avalanche narrowly missed out on the President Trophy for the best regular-season record, losing out to the Florida Panthers over the season’s final games. Meanwhile, the two-time defending champion Tampa Bay Lightning are looking to become the first team since the New York Islanders (1980-83) to win three Cups in a row.
With so much on the line, we expect these three players to step up and deliver, leaving value in backing them in Conn Smythe Trophy betting.
