Forty-nine years of a Stanley Cup wagering dry spell came to an end on last Wednesday evening when the Chicago Blackhawks defeated the Philadelphia Flyers in an exciting Game 4 battle to take the 2010 Stanley Cup odds title and hoist Lord Stanley’s giant chalice for the 1st time in nearly 5 decades.

In doing so the Blackhawks smashed the longest such NHL wagering losing streak and returned the Cup to Chicago, a city with a proud hockey wagering tradition.

And as the 2010 Stanley Cup odds season comes to a thrilling finish sports wagering fanatics are only able to look back and say: Whoa!

What a run it’s been through these past 2 months. Two Stanley Cup odds contenders arose out of the original 16 teams. Anyone that saw some of the 2010 Stanley Cup odds competition unfold would definitely agree that this series was every bit as interesting as last year’s Stanley Cup wagering series between the Red Wings and Penguins, and will surely go down in the annals of Stanley Cup wagering as among the most unforgettable in years. Both the Blackhawks and the Flyers played their guts out.

Part of what made the 2010 Stanley Cup odds competition so persuasive was the different back stories of both of these teams. On the one hand you had the Blackhawks who were the cream of the NHL wagering crop since almost the beginning of the hockey wagering season. Chicago qualified for the NHL playoff wagering tournament as the #2 and ripped through the Western Conference event sweeping the #1 seed Sharks in 4 games.

On the other hand you had the Flyers, the other 2010 Stanley Cup odds competitor, a team that only qualified for the NHL playoff wagering competition by winning a shootout in overtime on the last day of the normal season. This team went on to upset the #2 Devils, rewrite the NHL wagering history books by staging a memorable 3- comeback against the Bruins, and at last dismissing the #8 seed Canadiens in the Eastern Conference Finals wagering competition.

All in all, it was a helluva run, however many sports wagering fanatics were hoping for a Game 7 finale in Chicago and were loath to see the wildly compelling 2010 Stanley Cup odds competition at last draw to a close.

The brain trust of the NHL got together a few years ago after the disastrous lock out and cancelled season and changed the regulations of the game in a way such that the goal scoring avalanche of the 2010 Stanley Cup wagering tournament might take place.

The intent of the rule changes was to make hockey wagering more interesting to the casual sports wagering buff by increasing goal scoring opportunities. Anyone that has caught any of the 2010 Stanley Cup wagering competition would need to agree that that this experiment has been a huge success.

How else can you explain a 6-5 outburst in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup gambling event? Then in Game 5-7 to 4 offensive exhibitions? The NHL’s intention was to get additional goals obtained throughout the match and that has surely occurred through the 2010 Stanley Cup wagering action thus far.
