Toronto is 5-0 in their last 5 road games and 6-0 in their last 6 games played on 1 days rest while the over is 5-1 in their last 6 division games. Tampa Bay is 3-7 in their last 10 games overall and 3-8 in their last 11 games against the Atlantic division while the over is 5-1 in their last 6 games against a team with a winning percentage above .600.
Pick
I’m backing the over here. We just missed the over even with the empty-netter in game five, but I’m looking for more offense in game six. It’s been the calling card of this series for the most part so far and I think even in a high-pressure game like this, the offense will come fast and often. Give me the over here.
