Result: Win
Money Line: -183.00 Toronto (Home)
Result: Win
The set-up: LA comes in off a 5-1 road loss in Ottawa and I think it'll have its hands full here with a red hot Leafs team which returns home after a 4-2 road win in Washington.
The pick: The Kings are just 2-3 and the offense is averaging only 2.20 GPG. The defense/goaltending has been decent in allowing only 2.40 GPG, but Toronto is averaging 4.83 GPG, while allowing 3.67. Take it for what you will as well, but the Kings are just 2-6 in their last eight against a team with a winning record just 2-6 in their last eight when playing on one days rest. No upset here. Look for the Leafs to come in focused and to deliver another relatively simple victory in front of the home town crowd.
