Toronto Maple Leafs vs New Jersey Devils: NHL preview and betting tips

Where to watch Toronto Maple Leafs vs New Jersey Devils?

Toronto on a winning streak

Toronto is riding a winning streak ahead of the upcoming playoffs. Out of the last 7 games played, they have fallen in only one instance. In addition, after a short dry spell, the league’s top cannonballer Auston Matthews has switched back into scoring mode and is up to 66 goals on the season to date, still nursing hopes of becoming the first hockey player since the 1992-93 season to break the mythical 70 goals in a season mark.

New Jersey is playing for everything

New Jersey is still playing for the theoretical hope of making the playoffs in this game. Of course, they absolutely must win all of their remaining regular season games, plus hope that the teams ahead of them don’t win another game. It is therefore more of a utopia. But hope dies last.

Against Toronto, which plays very offensive hockey at home, it doesn’t look like a win in this game. Moreover, the whole Maple Leafs team is fully focused on supporting Matthews to put the remaining 4 goals in the coveted goal. First of all, the Devils will have to give a perfect defensive performance to stop Toronto’s goal machine.

Betting tip – Auston Matthews to score a goal

The league’s top scorer, who has long held the third Maurice Richard Trophy designated for the season’s top scorer in his ”pocket” is now on 66 goals and will score again in every game. He is driven by a desire to conquer the mythical 70-goal mark in a season. He is already the top scorer in this millennium, but this mark will ensure his immortality. He has scored against the Devils in the last 3 matches and he could extend his streak in this match as well. The odds of Matthews scoring have been set at 1.80.
