With just three teams remaining in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, here are the best betting options for the Stanley Cup Final futures:

New York Rangers to Win Stanley Cup (+650)

The Rangers offer excellent value at +650, significantly behind Tampa Bay (+300) and Colorado (-213). Key factors supporting this bet:

• Two of their remaining games against Tampa are at home
• Elite goaltender Igor Shesterkin can shut down any offense
• Colorado has notable injuries affecting their depth
• Rangers' talent level matches both remaining opponents

Steven Stamkos to Win Conn Smythe (+2300)

If Tampa advances, Stamkos presents tremendous value for the playoff MVP at +2300:

• Heating up with goals in 3 of 4 games vs Rangers
• Coming off career-best regular season (42 goals, 106 points)
• Tampa's previous Conn Smythe winners were defense/goalie
• Currently has 7 goals and 6 assists this postseason
• Strong veteran presence and leadership
