Toronto Maple Leafs

Toronto’s latest game resulted in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Wild, bringing their record to 40-24-3. The Maple Leafs were the underdogs on the puck line and the total was set at 6 goals, but the combined score of 3 fell short of that mark.

Toronto recorded 10 giveaways and had two assists, with Auston Matthews picking up his 6th and Mitchell Marner adding his 12th. The game remained tied 1-1 until Minnesota’s overtime winner.

4* Free NHL Hockey Betting Prediction: Maple Leafs +1.5

When making a moneyline pick, my choice is the Maple Leafs to come out with a win against the Avalanche while playing at home. Considering the moneyline odds at +103, I’m placing my bet on the Maple Leafs to win outright.

If you’re looking to get a bet down on this matchup, we foresee the Maple Leafs winning the underdog. However, if you’re not as confident in the Maple Leafs straight-up, we’d still recommend placing a bet on them to cover the puck line.

For those looking at the over/under line set at 6 goals, our expectation is that this game will surpass that mark, and we suggest making a bet on the over.
