The Toronto Maple Leafs have all the hype in the world. They play in a hockey-crazed market, have one of the best young players in the sport and sit second in the NHL in points. However, the Leafs still need to prove themselves better than their rivals from down the Trans-Canada Highway. The Ottawa Senators have won seven of the past eight meetings against the Leafs while outscoring them 29-16.
- The total has gone OVER in 6 of the Maple Leafs' 7 games this season.
- The Senators are 2-7 SU in their last 9 games after winning the previous game in a matchup.
- The Maple Leafs are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games on a 3-game SU winning streak.
The Leafs have propelled themselves to the top in the NHL on the back of their high-flying offense that is averaging a league-leading 4.86 goals per game. Of course, that would not be possible without superstar Auston Matthews who has already notched six goals and four assists in seven games. Matthews lit up the Sens during his rookie campaign with four goals and three assists in four games.
On the other hand, the Senators are getting it done this season with their excellent defense. Erik Karlsson and company is third in goals allowed per game and second in penalty kill. However, the Sens have run hot and cold so far this season bouncing from winning streaks and losing streaks.
