That’s ahead of the Rangers’ Adam Fox (+330, +400) and Tampa Bay’s Victor Hedman (+600, +500). The James Norris Trophy awarded to the best defenceman also appears to be a three-horse race.Ĭolorado’s Cale Makar is +250 at BetMGM and +400 at DraftKings. He’s also the +400 favourite at DraftKings ahead of Shesterkin (+450) and Vasilevskiy (+600). Colorado’s Darcy Kuemper (+4000) is being backed by a book-high 14.8 percent of the bets, while Shesterkin has been supported by 18.1 percent of the money and is the book’s biggest liability.Ĭampbell is being backed by 8.3 and 10.8 percent, respectively. Toronto’s Andrei Vasilevskiy and the New York Rangers’ Igor Shesterkin are co-favourites at +450 at BetMGM ahead of Toronto’s Jack Campbell, whose odds have shortened from +2500 at the start of the season to +650. The race for the Vezina Trophy as the NHL’s top goaltender is much tighter among three top candidates who have emerged. Matthews is six goals behind Draisaitl, but Toronto has played two fewer games and Matthews missed the first three games of the season after leading the league with 41 goals in 52 games last year. Matthews (+300) is also vying with Draisaitl (+250) and Ovechkin (+350) to win the Rocket Richard award as the leading goal scorer. Toronto Maple Leafs centre Auston Matthews, another 2021 finalist, is being backed by 4.4 and 1.0 percent, respectively with +1200 odds after opening at +700. Ovechkin is second with 6.3 percent of the money wagered on the Hart market, while Draisaitl has been backed by 7.1 percent of the tickets and 4.7 percent of the money. However, it’s Colorado Avalanche centre Nathan MacKinnon, a finalist last year, who is second at BetMGM with 20.4 percent of the total bets. Washington Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin is second at +350 at both sportsbooks, while Draisaitl is being offered at +400 by DraftKings and +600 at BetMGM.
