Money Line: 100.00 Montreal (Away)
Result: Win
It's difficult to pass up the Canadiens as an underdog to the Maple Leafs especially since Toronto is struggling as much as Montreal.
The Canadiens have been idle since Tuesday. That's a long time to fix their current defensive problems. The Canadiens are better than they have shown. I can't say that about Toronto, which has dropped six of its last seven scoring only eight goals during this span.
Montreal is 2-0 against the Maple Leafs this season. Sharp overnight money has been on Montreal, which you have to respect. The Canadiens are the better overall team, certainly offensively.
