Analysis

Toronto Maple Leafs. Power Play. Game 13. 5:00 PM PST/8:00 PM EST. Playing on your own ice usually gives the home team an advantage. There is no denying Toronto is just as good on the road as Boston is at home. As a matter fact, there are 26-12-6 away from home, while the Bruins are 25-12-7 at the TD Garden. The Maple Leafs have also taken the last two games played in Boston in this series. While the Boston defense/goaltending ranks in the top 10 in the NHL, offensively they have struggled a bit. I just don't see them dominating here. I certainly don't see them being this high of a favorite. Psychologically, they were up 3-1 in this series and now it is all even. The Maple Leafs have to come in here confident for sure, riding momentum. Take Toronto. Thank you.
