Jack Adams Award Odds 2024: Canucks Bench Boss Tocchet Closes as Favorite
Our best sports betting sites have closed down the 2024 Jack Adams Award odds markets, and Vancouver Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet closed as the favorite by the best NHL odds.
Our best NHL betting sites wrapped up the 2024 Jack Adams odds market with Vancouver Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet trading as a minus-money favorite. Over the end of the season, the gap between him and the other contenders grew even wider.
Tocchet was the favorite for several months as the season progressed, but the days of him trading at plus-money odds were long over by the time the Canucks finished the season with a 50-23-9 record and captured the Pacific Division. Vancouver notched just 38 wins in 2022-23.
Here’s a look at our analysis of the Jack Adams Award odds from our best sports betting apps.

Jack Adams Award favorites
Rick Tocchet (-300 via bet365)
Tocchet closed -300 or shorter across the board, and he traded at minus money for the final two months of the season
Tocchet joined the Canucks halfway through the season last year and guided the team to the top seed in the Pacific Division after three years of falling short of postseason hockey. Vancouver has one of the top offenses in the league and has been excellent defensively.
Paul Maurice (+700 via FanDuel)
Maurice is in his second season as the Panthers' bench boss, having led the team to the Stanley Cup Finals in 2022-23. That may be why he was so far back of Tocchet on the oddsboard: the Panthers have done this before.
The Panthers have improved on last season's win total by notching 52 wins and are once again strong contenders in our Stanley Cup odds. But this award often goes to a coach who's turned their team around or done something historical, while Maurice has improved on an already good showing last year.
Rick Bowness (+900 via FanDuel)
Like most NHL award plays at this point in the season, true long shots have more or less disappeared. With around 20 or fewer games remaining for most teams, this is as far down the board as we'd go, and Winnipeg Jets head coach Rick Bowness isn't far off our contender in terms of odds.
The Jets surged toward the finish line to wrap up the season 52-24-6, finishing just three points behind the Dallas Stars in the Central Division.
But Bowness is hurt by the same thing that's probably limiting Maurice in his quest to chase down Tocchett: the fact that the Jets have "been there, done that" regarding regular-season results last season.
