Game Preview
It has been a challenging start to the season for the Toronto Maple Leafs, and they currently sit second bottom in the Atlantic Division standings. Their patchy form this term has seen them go 9-9-2 across their opening 20 games, and that inconsistency has followed across their last ten after winning just four times.
However, the Maple Leafs looked like a more confident unit in their latest outing, as they battled to a win over the St. Louis Blues in overtime. Jake McCabe, Steven Lorentz, and William Nylander scored the goals in the dramatic win. But, backing up that success is now their big challenge at the Scotiabank Arena.
The Columbus Blue Jackets will be on the road this Thursday, as they bid to find some consistency in their performance levels. They have gone 10-8-2 at the start of the campaign, and they have struggled offensively throughout the season to this point.
The Blue Jackets come into this game after going 4-4-2 across their last ten, which includes a defeat in their latest outing against the Winnipeg Jets. Columbus conceded two goals in each of the final two periods of that loss, and a more professional display will be required in Toronto.
Blue Jackets vs. Maple Leafs Picks
Toronto’s struggles in terms of consistency this season make them a challenging team to trust. Therefore, it could be worth chancing the Blue Jackets improving on their 5-4-1 road record in the NHL on Thursday.
