Maple Leafs vs. Red Wings Picks
Money Line Pick for Maple Leafs vs. Red Wings
- Toronto Maple Leafs ML (4 Units)
The Maple Leafs looked good in their first game, especially on the offensive end, with the team scoring five goals. The Red Wings didnโt put up much of a fight in their first game at home, and they also struggled on special teams, killing less than 70 percent of their penalties, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Maple Leafs.
Detroit won't be as successful offensively because they didnโt look good in their first game, struggling to score against a team that had one of the worst defenses in the league last season. The Maple Leafs killed 100 percent of their penalties in their first game and gave up only two goals, so expect them to keep Detroitโs offense in check. Take Toronto on the money line.
