The Boston Bruins look to regain home-ice advantage in this best-of-seven Sportsbook-round matchup against the Toronto Maple Leafs as Game 4 goes from Scotiabank Arena. Toronto earned home-ice advantage after splitting the first two games at TD Garden and grabbed a 2-1 series lead in Game 3 at home. The Leafs are a -120 favorite in tonight’s game with the Bruins coming back at +100 and the total Sportsbook at 6 goals.
I think with Toronto being able to have the last line change, the Leafs will almost always have the personnel they want against Boston’s lines. The B’s need to take advantage of the Leafs’ icings, which they tried to do in Game 3 but were unable to capitalize.
In 2016-17, Auston Matthews was held pointless in the Leafs’ first two playoff games vs Washington but then scored in the four remaining games. He got his first in Game 3 this year – will he be able to find the back of the net more frequently now?
