Leafs Underdogs in Tuesday NHL Odds

The Maple Leafs are listed as rare road underdogs against the Panthers in the Tuesday NHL odds. Toronto’s +138 moneyline price gives them only 42% implied probability to win. Sheldon Keefe’s team is coming off a huge 6-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday.

The back-to-back situation is a key reason for Toronto’s underdog price against the Panthers. Although Florida will have a rest advantage, the Leafs have actually performed well on back-to-backs. Toronto is 8-2 in their last 10 game of a 3-in-4 situation.

Toronto’s lethal offense is the major reason to considering betting them in the Tuesday NHL odds. The Maple Leafs have scored five or more goals in five straight games. Toronto also has the NHL’s top power play unit, featuring leading goalscorer Auston Matthews

The goaltending situation is where it gets interesting for Toronto against Florida. With Jack Campbell getting the nod Monday night, backup netminder Erik Kallgren (4-2-1, .906 SV%, 2.71 GAA) is Tuesday’s projected starting NHL goalie.

Florida does hold a defensive edge over Toronto, which is something that’s factored into this NHL betting line. The Cats are only giving up 2.90 goals per game, while the Leafs are allowing 3.03 goals per contest.

Florida is expected to start rookie goalie Spencer Knight in net against the Maple Leafs. The 20-year-old has had an up-and-down season, posting a 15-8 record with a .904 save percentage and 2.90 GAA.

Leafs vs Panthers Pick & Prediction

It’s almost always a goalfest when the Panthers and Leafs do battle in the NHL odds. The two Atlantic Division heavyweights have combined for at least seven goals in five straight meetings. The “over” trend is something you should keep in mind when making a pick on the game.

Leafs vs Panthers Recent Results

It’s rare to see a total of 7 for an NHL matchup, but oddsmakers set it there for good reason. These are the two highest-scoring offenses in the NHL and both boast elite superstars. Furthermore, both projected starting goalies for Tuesday are below-average in save percentage.

Here are some betting trends to note for Leafs vs Panthers:

• Over is 4-0 in Maple Leafs last 4 games as a road underdog
• Over is 9-1-2 in Panthers last 12 vs. Atlantic
• Over is 4-0-1 in the last 5 meetings

Leafs vs Panthers has all the makings of another high-scoring affair. Toronto in particular should be able to get this game over the total due to Florida missing their best d-man, Aaron Ekblad (lower body). The Cats are only 15th in PK percentage and face Toronto’s lethal PP unit.

Trust these two offense to stay hot at FLA Live Arena. Bet Over 7 goals in the Tuesday NHL odds at Caesars Sportsbook.

Pick: Over 7 (-110)
