By no means are the Maple Leafs a good hockey team, and you have to pick your spots with them. After getting blown out by a superior Washington team to start the road trip, the Leafs have been on the winning side, losing by just a goal in each of the other two. I like them here catching the Panthers as a tired team that will be in their fourth game in six nights - a situation where they have faltered in at 5-11 in their last 16. They have also not capitalized on a good effort behind the net in their next game as after allowing 2 or less they are 4-11 in the game that follows. I'll ride Toronto in this one.
