Hurricanes vs Maple Leafs Prediction

The Hurricanes are going to get the nod from oddsmakers because they’re the more trustworthy tram, and they’re at home where they’re 31-8-1 on the season. However, this line is a bit thick for a Maple Leafs team that’s playing great hockey and is closing in on a division title. Let’s not act like the Canes weren’t riding a four-game losing streak before their win last night over the Rangers. With wins in six of their last seven games and back-to-back overtime wins, the confidence has to be flowing for the Leafs right now. I’ll grab the plus money.
