The Toronto Maple Leafs will try to shake off a tough loss in Boston when they host the Anaheim Ducks tonight. The Leafs were on a four-game winning streak before being defeated in Beantown and opened as the favorite vs the Ducks.
- The total has gone OVER in four of the Ducks’ last five games on the road against the Maple Leafs.
- The Ducks are 9-2 SU in their last 11 games on the road after losing their two most recent road games.
- Toronto is 1-7 ATS in its last eight games.
Anaheim has had its fair share of struggles on the road this season and has gone 2-5 SU in its last seven away games. Another factor that could doom the Ducks is not having goaltender John Gibson in net. The starting netminder has won six of his last seven starts and only allowed 11 goals in those wins.
The Leafs, on the other hand, may be finding their groove and are 5-2 SU in their last seven games. They start a five-game homestand tonight and should be more stable on the defensive end after working defenseman Morgan Rielly back into the lineup.
When these two teams meet, Toronto seems to get the better of Anaheim. The Leafs are 7-3 SU in the last 10 games in this matchup and have dominated the Ducks at the Air Canada Centre, having won nine of the last 12 meetings in the T.Dot.
The total opened at 5.5 and trends are pointing toward an OVER. The Leafs were averaging four goals per game during their most recent win streak and will be facing backup goaltender Ryan Miller, who allowed five goals on seven shots vs the Canadiens on Saturday before being pulled from the game. The OVER has also hit in four of the last five games in this matchup in Toronto.
