It has been a very strange season for the Maple Leafs. They have seen 12 of their games end in shootouts, and 10 others end in overtime. They are an under .500 team on the road, but wait a minute, in their last seven road tilts they are 5-2. As bad as they have been on the road, there are nine teams in the Eastern Conference with 20+ home wins, and Toronto has gone on the road and beaten seven of them. Now they get another chance against Montreal, who is in a colossal struggle right now. The Habs have lost four straight and six of eight, and are just nine and 18 in their last 27. The Giant killer steps in once again, and I'll go with Toronto here.
