The Calgary Flames just can’t get out of their own way this week, with losses in four of their last five games, and playing on the end of a back to back won’t help matters. The Toronto Maple Leafs have shined in the favorite role dating back to last season, and it’s the favorite that’s won 19 of the last 28 meetings between these clubs. Give me the Maple Leafs and the reasonable price.
