Game Preview
The dominant Colorado Avalanche will be aiming to extend their advantage at the top of the Central Division on Monday when they host in-form Toronto. Colorado have been the standout team in the Western Conference so far this season, winning the highest number of games, and scoring the most goals.
Their electric form has continued in recent weeks after winning eight of their last ten. The Avalanche recorded a second straight win in the NHL over the weekend, as they cruised to a 4-0 home success over the Columbus Blue Jackets. Brent Burns was the standout star in the win, scoring twice.
Confidence levels should be high within the Toronto camp ahead of this road game. The Leafs have recorded wins in each of their last three, improving their record over their last ten to 7-1-2. A shock win on the road this week could see them end the night as high as fourth in the Atlantic Division.
Toronto were at their clinical best in their latest game, as they registered a 5-0 home win over the Vancouver Canucks. William Nylander scored and made two assists in that success. However, it could be worth noting that the Leafs have underperformed on their travels this season, going 6-10-2.
Maple Leafs vs. Avalanche Picks
Toronto’s inconsistent record on the road is challenging to dismiss this week. Therefore, it is very hard to overlook the prospect of Colorado maintaining their dominance in the Western Conference.
