The Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs meet Tuesday in NHL action at the Scotiabank Arena. The Detroit Red Wings need a win after losing six of their last nine games. The Toronto Maple Leafs look for a win after winning 10 of their last 14 games. 

The Detroit Red Wings are averaging 2.8 goals per game and are scoring on 16.7 percent of their power play opportunities. Dylan Larkin leads Detroit with 31 goals, Moritz Seider has 43 assists and Lucas Raymond has 179 shots on goal. Defensively, the Detroit Red Wings are allowing 3.8 goals per game and are killing 74.4 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Alex Nedeljkovic has given up 175 goals on 1,760 shots faced, and Thomas Greiss has allowed 92 goals on 842 shots.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are averaging 3.9 goals per game and are scoring on 27.6 percent of their power play opportunities. Auston Matthews leads Toronto with 58 goals, Mitchell Marner has 62 assists and William Nylander has 251 shots on goal. Defensively, the Toronto Maple Leafs are allowing 3.1 goals per game and are killing 83.2 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Jack Campbell has given up 123 goals on 1,410 shots faced, and Petr Mrazek has allowed 58 goals on 520 shots.

The Red Wings are 23-76 in their last 99 road games and 64-139 in their last 203 overall. The Maple Leafs are 36-15 in their last 51 home games and 50-23 in their last 73 overall. The over is 21-10-3 in Red Wings last 34 overall. The over is 37-14-7 in Maple Leafs last 58 overall. The Red Wings are 1-7 in the last 8 meetings in Toronto and 7-19 in the last 26 meetings.

The Detroit Red Wings continue to pile up the losses, especially on the road, and now they go to Toronto, where they’ve had little to no success over the years. The Toronto Maple Leafs are one of the hotter teams in the league, and their offensive firepower should have a field day against this rough Red Wings defense. No reason not to side with the Maple Leafs and the PL for max betting value.
