Blues vs. Maple Leafs Best Bets
Tuesday, December 3, 2023 - 7:00PM ET
PICK: Maple Leafs Team Total Over 4 (+125)
The Toronto Maple leafs return home to host the St. Louis Blues tonight at Scotiabank Arena.
The Leafs are off a 6-2 win in Colorado on New Year’s Eve against the Avs. Toronto has been rolling at home lately where they are 13-2-3
The Maple Leafs average 3.5 goals per game at home, which is 7th most in the league, and they average 34 shots per game, which is 9th most.
Toronto’s Power Play is also clicking at 29%. Toronto has scored at least 4 goals in each of the last 5 home games with 3 of them seeing 5.
The St. Louis Blues have struggled all season defensively. St. Louis is allowing 3.6 goals per game on the road this season, which is 7th most in the league and they are allowing 34 shots per game, which is 6th most.
The Blues have not gotten consistent goaltending this season as they have a team save percentage of .888.
Adding to this is they will be without Ryan O’Reilly for the next 6 weeks, who is one of the best defensive forwards in the league.
These teams met in St. Louis last week, which resulted in a 5-4 Toronto win. I can see the Leafs scoring 5 again so I’ll go with the Alternate team total over, at plus money.
So bet Maple Leafs Team Total Over 4 (+125) with BetMGM.
