Sure Toronto has missed the playoffs. But, doesn't seem to have affected their play. They have won four straight and eight of their last ten. They face an also-hot Buffalo squad that has won five of six. Home Favorites of -200 or less having won 3 of their last 4 games facing an opponent that has won 8 or more of their last 10 games are just 19-30 (39%) since 1996. Also, road teams off a home blowout win by 3 goals or more, with a winning percentage of between 45-55% are 35-23 (60%) in the second half of the season over the last 5 seasons. Toronto has a chance here and there's good value on them at +140.
