Two Canadian clubs are set to battle tonight on Hockey Night in Canada, with the Vancouver Canucks visiting the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Vancouver Canucks (+146) vs. Toronto Maple Leafs (-178) Total: 6.5 (O-132, U+108)
Neither of these teams are playing particularly great hockey entering this matchup, with the Canucks sitting at 4-4-2 over their last ten games, while the Maple Leafs are 4-3-3 over that same stretch of games. Toronto will be playing for the second consecutive night after dropping a 4-2 decision to the Pittsburgh Penguins last night.
This matchup has interesting potential, knowing that the Maple Leafs’ offense is much better than their 24th standing in goals per game suggests.
