On Thursday night, the Tampa Bay Lightning head to Toronto to take on the Maple Leafs at Scotiabank Arena. When these teams last met back in March, the Maple Leafs were blown out by the Lightning.
Tampa Bay Lightning
Without a doubt, the Tampa Bay Lighting have been the best team in the NHL this season. With 60 wins and two games remaining, the Lightning have the top seed in the league locked up, meaning that home ice advantage is secure.
To that end, don’t expect 100 percent from Tampa on Thursday. The top lines likely won’t play as much, in order to get a little rest heading into the playoffs, and against a team like Toronto, that could be a difference-maker.

The team has clearly taken its foot of the gas, considering it’s lost three of its last five games. Be wary of that when placing bets on this game. You likely won’t be betting on the same Tampa squad that clinched the playoffs.
Toronto Maple Leafs
The Toronto Maple Leafs have had a tough go of it against the Lightning in recent matchups. The Leafs have lost four of the last five games against Tampa, including a horrid 6-2 loss back in mid-March.
However, this game could be different, considering that Tampa has nothing to play for at this point, and the Leafs are still a very solid team. Toronto’s heading to the playoffs, due in no small part to its offense.

Toronto averages 3.5 goals per game, which makes a lot of sense when you look at the roster. John Tavares has been a huge part of the team’s success, and has proven to be a fantastic addition to Toronto this year. He has 47 goals and 41 assists, including six goals in his last five games.
NHL Betting Trends:
- The total has gone OVER in 6 of Tampa Bay’s last 7 games
- The total has gone OVER in 6 of Tampa Bay’s last 7 games on the road
- Toronto is 2-12 ATS in its last 14 games
- The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Toronto’s last 8 games
Free Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Toronto Maple Leafs NHL Prediction:
To reiterate, Tampa Bay is likely to take it easy in game 81. There’s nothing left to play for, so Toronto should have an advantage. At home, look for the Leafs to take the win in this one.
4* Free NHL Betting Pick: UNDER
I like Toronto to win here, but not put up an insane scoring total. This one should stay relatively close, so I’ll take it to stay under 7.
