Drake places a significant bet on the NHL Stanley Cup Final

Canadian musician Drake hailing from Toronto, has placed a wager on the NHL's Stanley Cup Final showdown, between the Edmonton Oilers and the Florida Panthers.

The anticipation surrounding the Edmonton Oilers is soaring throughout Canada, as fans eagerly anticipate a Stanley Cup victory by a Canadian team for the first time since 1993. The Oilers are four victories away from claiming their championship since 1990 under the leadership of legendary player Mark Messier.

Despite his allegiance to Toronto, Drake has shown his confidence in the Edmonton Oilers by placing a bet on them to triumph over the Florida Panthers in the Stanley Cup. He has wagered $500,000 on both the NBA's Dallas Mavericks to secure victory against the Boston Celtics and on the Oilers success against the Panthers. If both predictions prove correct Drake stands to win $1.35 million

Drake took to Instagram to share a snapshot of his wagers with a caption that read;

This latest betting endeavor for Drake is not his first rodeo . With an estimated worth of $250 million, he is no stranger to high stakes gambling. In an instance he pocketed around $2.3 million after betting $1.15 million on the Kansas City Chiefs emerging victorious, in the Super Bowl.

In 2022 he placed a $400,000 bet, and ended up winning $1.2 million by predicting that the series, between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning would extend to seven games.

The upcoming Stanley Cup Final between the Oilers and Panthers is set to kick off this weekend at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise.
