Senators vs Maple Leafs Pickswise Expert Predictions

Money Line Pick
OTT Senators Win(-115)

The Ottawa Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs meet at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto in a rematch of last season’s first-round playoff matchup. These provincial rivals haven’t met in the regular season. While Ottawa on 3-0 in last season’s series, outscoring Toronto 9-3, but the Maple Leafs won in six games in the first round. Ottawa is in sixth place in the Atlantic Division, and Toronto is in eighth place, so things haven’t exactly gone the way things were imagined when the season started.

Prior to the holiday break, the Senators lost 3-2 in overtime on Tuesday, winning in four of the past five games, going 4-0-1. The Sens have started to make some inroads lately, allowing just 11 goals in the past five outings, or 2.2 goals per game (GPG). The Maple Leafs posted a 6-3 victory on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins, perhaps turning a corner. But, prior to that, the Maple Leafs had managed just four total goals in three games, while coughing up 14 goals. The Leafs are still just 2-4-1 in the past seven games, and until Toronto starts to stack wins, keep fading it.

Senators ML (-115) at time of publishing. Playable to -120.
