You name it, and Vegas will set odds for it.

Such is the case for the major NHL trade-bait targets and their chances of being dealt before the deadline.

All the usual suspects are included on the list of players, with set odds related to the likelihood of them playing for new teams come Monday. Those include New York Rangers forward Rick Nash and Montreal Canadiens pivot Tomas Plekanec, who are currently pegged as the most likely to be changing cities for the stretch run.

Take a look at the odds Bodog has cooked up for the players it thinks are most likely to be on the move before Feb. 26:

Player (Team) Odds will be traded Odds won't be traded
Alex Galchenyuk (Canadiens) 3/1 1/5
Erik Karlsson (Senators) 17/10 2/5
Max Pacioretty (Canadiens) 2/1 1/3
Mike Hoffman (Senators) 3/2 1/2
Patrick Maroon (Oilers) 3/2 1/2
Rick Nash (Rangers) 5/7 1/1
Thomas Vanek (Canucks) 11/10 2/3
Tomas Plekanec (Canadiens) 5/7 1/1

Hedge your bets accordingly.
