St. Louis Blues vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction

The St. Louis Blues have looked awful at both ends of the ice in their last few games, and it’s not ideal when going up against a talented Toronto side. Maybe things turn around for the Blues with them coming back home, but it’s still hard to find the confidence to back them given what we’ve seen recently. The Maple Leafs just aren’t the team you want to see when you’re trying to find your footing, as they can blitz you offensively. Give me the Maple Leafs, and I’ll lay the PL to shave down the price.
