The San Jose Sharks have had great success against the Maple Leafs in past meetings, but it’s hard to get behind them with their inability to find the back of the net. The Toronto Maple Leafs are winning games without their offense finding its stride through 7 efforts. It’s only a matter of time before the Maple Leafs start clicking on that side. The San Jose Sharks just don’t have the offensive firepower to give the Maple Leafs a scare. Give me Toronto and the PL for max betting value.
