Dallas Stars vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 04/13/26

The Dallas Stars and Toronto Maple Leafs both already know their playoff fate when they face one another on Monday night. Dallas is set to face Minnesota in the first round, while Toronto is nowhere near a playoff spot and has been eliminated from postseason contention for over a week. With that in mind, it wouldn’t be surprising to see both teams play this game with a bit more relaxed sense of urgency. Dallas just wants to get through this week fully healthy and gear up to take on the Wild in what should be a tremendous series to watch unfold. On the other side, the Toronto’s 78 points are the 2nd-fewest in the Eastern Conference and they enter this contest riding a 5-game losing streak.

The Maple Leafs have struggled to find consistent goal-scoring in recent weeks with Auston Matthews sidelined, and things won’t get any easier going up against a Dallas team that ranks 2nd in the NHL allowing just 2.58 goals per game. While it’s been a tough season in Toronto, the Maple Leaf penalty kill has been effective, ranking 4th in the league with a kill percentage of 82.1%. That could be the difference in keeping this one a lower-scoring game. With a total of 6, the under is the play in this Monday matchup.
