Senators vs Maple Leafs Prediction

This is a statement game for the Ottawa Senators, and they’ll have some confidence knowing they’ve won the last three games against the Maple Leafs. The problem is, it’s hard to back a Senators team that’s been shut out in back-to-back games. We know the Maple Leafs are going to score goals, and they’ve actually scored three or more goals in seven of their last 10 games. The Senators have been shut out in three of their last five games. In a pick ’em spot, I have to roll with the team that’s playing the better hockey right now. That’s the Maple Leafs.
