The Ottawa Senators didn't have too many positives in their opening loss. If there was something positive, for an offense that scored the second-least goals a year ago, it was the fact that Milan Michalek, a former first round pick, scored twice - something he did just two times a year ago. Toronto had a much better debut, posting a 2-0 shutout win over Montreal. Last year the Maple Leafs posted just one shutout at home, and in their very next game, they allowed 6 goals. They only managed 2 goals of their own, and Ottawa came up big towards the end of last season facing a team that scored 2 goals or less in their previous game where they were 6-1. The Maple Leafs often surrendered the cash as a chalk of -151 to -200 where they closed last year 1-5 in their last six. Play on Ottawa in this one.
