Red Wings vs Maple Leafs Picks
Toronto Maple Leafs ML (-190) at BET99
After a morale-boosting 4-0 win over the Boston Bruins, a team the Leafs hadn't beaten in seven regular-season games, Toronto is in the right mindset to pick up another win tonight against the Detroit Red Wings who are a tricky opponent for the Leafs winning four of the last five meetings.
But the Leafs have proven to be trend breakers early this year, not only did they beat the Bruins for the first time in eight games but they're the only team to defeat the 13-1-0 Winnipeg Jets this season.
The Bruins game also proved that Toronto can score even with Auston Matthews out of the lineup, Morgan Rielly was a big presence in that win with three points. OVER 0.5 points for Rielly is -120 at BET99.
I understand that Detroit is coming off 2-1 and 3-1 wins against the Sabres and Blackhawks, respectively, but that isn't much of a challenge, with both teams holding losing records this season. Detroit is still 6-6SU on the season and has the 22nd-ranked offense (2.75 GF/G) and the eighth-worst defensive record on the road since the 2023-24 season. It's easy to like the Leafs to win this one at home.
Red Wings vs Maple Leafs Player Prop
Alex DeBrincat OVER 0.5 Points (-135) at BET99
Alex DeBrincat is in a rich vein of form scoring a point in three straight games and in five of his last six games per Outlier.
DeBrincat is loving life next to Dylan Larkin scoring four goals and adding an assist in 143 minutes of 5on5 ice time, Larkin has been a beast against the Leafs with nine points in his last eight games. Toronto might be coming off a shut out but they've allowed an average of 3.86 goals in their previous seven games, while attached to Larkin's hip, DeBrincat should easily notch at least one point tonight against this porous Leafs squad.
