The second-round series between the Montreal Canadiens and Buffalo Sabres got a lot more interesting Friday when the Habs dominated a road game to even the series at one game apiece. The statement win not only tied up the series, but also tied Buffalo and Montreal at 13-1 odds to win the Stanley Cup.

There is also a tie at the top of the odds board, with the Carolina Hurricanes and Colorado Avalanche each at +160 headed into Saturday's slate when both teams will be in action. The Vegas Golden Knights returned to third-best +550 odds after taking back the series lead against the Anaheim Ducks (50-1).

The Philadelphia Flyers round out the board at a very distant 250-1.
