The PLAY: Toronto Maple Leafs -125
This is a FREE PLAY on the Toronto Maple Leafs.
I like playing on desperate teams, and after five straight losses, I'd say that it's the Leafs who are the much more desperate team in this fight.
St. Louis is 6-9-4 overall, while Toronto is 8-9-2.
The Blues are 3-4 on the road, while the Leafs are 7-4-2 at home.
But it's all hands on deck, do or die essentially for the Leafs on Tuesday in my opinion. As I said, I like playing motivated and desperate teams.
And they catch the Blues at a good time, as they come in with zero momentum after two straight losses of their own, most recently a poor 4-1 loss at home against Vegas.
Overall, the Blues are ranked 24th offensively, averaging 2.8 goals per game, while ranked 32nd defensively in conceding 3.8.
Toronto is averaging 3.6 goals per game this year, which is ranked fourth, but it's taken a huge step back here on the defensive end and between the pipes, tied with the Blues with the worst collective goals against average in the league at 3.8.
This will be a popular pick among the general betting public for all of the reasons I've listed above, but also because of the reasonable overall price.
I don't smell any upsets here, and I expect Toronto to come in focused and to finally deliver a half-decent, three-period effort, which will be more than enough to take care of this struggling Blues side.
I think this line could/should in fact be larger, and that's why I think the LEAFS are worth a "second look" on Tuesday night.
Good luck, NP
