Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Vancouver Canucks Prediction
I’m on the Maple Leafs in this one. Toronto’s had issues keeping the puck out of the net lately, leading to a fair share of overs, but this Canucks team just can’t get anything going these days and it makes them really hard to back even getting plus money because they lose so many games that it doesn’t give it much value. I think this is a good spot for Toronto to finish their road trip on a high note, so give me Toronto here.
