Anaheim has a losing road record and plays the fourth road game of a six-game trek. The defense has struggled on the trip allowing 15 goals the last three games, off a 6-4 setback in Detroit on Saturday. Toronto is 9-5 at home and wraps up five-game homestand tonight. Toronto's rookie class continues to pay dividends with Mitch Marner recording his seventh multi-point performance by setting up a pair of goals on Saturday to seize the team lead in assists (15). His 23 points are matched by fellow rookie Auston Matthews, the top overall pick of the 2016 draft. They come off a 2-1 win over defending champion Pittsburgh. Toronto has won eight of the last nine encounters, and the home team is 11-5 in the last 16 meetings. Play Toronto.
