Toronto comes off a 5-2 win over Carolina last night as Zach Aston-Reese scored twice and Ilya Samsonov had 32 saves and it snapped a two-game skid by the Maple Leafs, who have won four of the past five meetings with Ottawa, but are seeking revenge for a 6-2 loss on Jan. 27. Matt Murray is confirmed for this game and he is 12-7-2 with a 2.92 goals-against average this season and Mads Sogaard will be in net for the Senators. Sogaard has allowed 23 goals his past five starts and he was the loser in Thursday's 5-4 loss to Colorado. The Maple Leafs have won five of six in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days situation and Ottawa is 17-44 its past 61 games against .600 teams. Also, the Senators are 18-41 after allowing at least five goals their previous game. Thirteen of the past 19 meetings at Ottawa have gone OVER and the Senators have gone OVER eight straight at home and nine of 11 overall. Play the Maple Leafs and the OVER as a Max Play.
