Toronto is 4-1 in their last 5 road games and 35-16 in their last 51 games against the Metropolitan division while the under is 4-1 in their last 5 games against a team with a winning record.

Pick
I’m backing the under here. There’s nothing to play for on either side here and I think both teams’ priorities here is just getting in and out as healthy as possible with their first round playoff series looming. I think this is going to be a tight one and a low-scoring one as well. This feels like a first to 3 wins kind of game. Give me the under.
