Game Preview
It has been a miserable period in the season for the Toronto Maple Leafs, as the Canadian team have dropped to the bottom of the Atlantic Division standings after losing their last five. That run of form means that Toronto now have an overall record of 24-20-9.
If the Maple Leafs are to have any hope of finishing in a playoff spot this term, then they will need to improve defensively. No side in the Eastern Conference have allowed more goals than Toronto this term.
The team’s poor form continued earlier this week, as they were easily beaten 7-4 by the Buffalo Sabres. That defeat means that they have now allowed 17 goals in their last three games.
The Seattle Kraken will have the home ice advantage this week. It is also worth noting that they come into the round in winning form, having claimed victories in each of their last two.
Over their last ten, Seattle have gone 4-5-1, and they rank among the best defensive teams in the Western Conference after allowing 155 goals in their 52 games.
Seattle’s most recent victory was a blow-out success against the Washington Capitals. Jared McCann started in the 5-1 victory, netting twice and adding two assists.
Maple Leafs vs. Kraken Picks
The Maple Leafs at odds-on is a poor selection based on their recent form. Therefore, the Kraken hold the momentum required to claim a third straight win.
