The Blackhawks played only one game the last four days -- [a 5-2 win over the visiting Red Wings on Sunday](https://www.betchicago.com/blackhawks-beat-detroit-seventh-straight-victory) -- but they continued their march up the oddsboard Monday. Chicago (23-24-9) has won seven straight following a five-game losing skid, scoring at an impressive clip throughout, and their Stanley Cup odds have dropped precipitously during the win streak. At [500/1 odds only last Monday](https://www.betchicago.com/nhl-futures-odds-blackhawks-win-streak), the Blackhawks were moved to 200/1 on Wednesday and were listed at 100/1 as of Monday at the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook. Chicago is the hottest team in the league, though still [tied for last place in the Central Division](https://www.thescore.com/nhl/standings/division). But the Blackhawks are only four points behind the Wild and Blues for the final Western Conference wild card spots with 26 regular-season games remaining. And the NHL trade deadline is two weeks from Monday, so they still could add a piece or two for the stretch run. __MORE:__ [Blackhawks sign rookie goalie Collin Delia to three-year, $3 million extension](https://twitter.com/betchicago1/status/1095118571926183936) <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BIPbDoI9iw" class="embedly-card" data-card-width="100%" data-card-controls="0">Embedded content: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BIPbDoI9iw</a> Chicago has outscored its opponents 37-20 during its win streak, and the OVER has hit in five straight Blackhawks games [and 12 of 13](http://www.vegasinsider.com/nhl/teams/team-page.cfm/team/blackhawks). Chicago has the second most games that have gone OVER in the league this season (34-18-4), behind only San Jose (35-21). The Blackhawks aren't the only team whose Cup odds are on the move, as the Lightning, who lead the league with 86 points, are 9/2 as of Monday, up from 4/1 last week, while the Blues, winners of six straight, have gone from 80/1 on Friday to 40/1. ## Updated Stanley Cup odds *odds courtesy of Westgate; 100/1 and below Lightning: 9/2 Maple Leafs, Sharks: 7/1 (were both 10/1 last week) Jets: 8/1 (were 7/1) Flames: 9/1 (8/1) Predators: 10/1 (9/1) Golden Knights: 10/1 Capitals: 12/1 Penguins: 14/1 (10/1) Bruins: 14/1 (12/1) Blue Jackets: 20/1 (30/1) Stars: 30/1 (25/1) Islanders: 30/1 Canadiens, Hurricanes: 40/1 Blues: 40/1 (80/1) Flyers: 60/1 (100/1) Wild: 80/1 (60/1) Avalanche: 80/1 Sabres: 100/1 (60/1) Canucks, Coyotes, Panthers: 100/1 Blackhawks, Kings: 100/1 (200/1) __PLAY:__ Our free [Chicago NHL Puck Drop game](https://betchicago.chalkline.com/games/chicago-nhl-puck-drop).
