Ducks vs. Maple Leafs picks and odds: Expect Toronto to pile up shots

The Toronto Maple Leafs host the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday. The team is looking to extend their point streak to 15 straight games.

The pregame narrative is that Toronto is red hot and now gets to face an Anaheim team that has lost eight of its last 10 games.

Ducks are a -455 moneyline favourite against the Maple Leafs. Anaheim has won back-to-back games just once all season. The Ducks are allowing 37.52 shots per game and 39.18 on the road. Toronto averages 31.24 shots and had exactly 36 shots in an overtime loss to Anaheim last time.

Ducks and Maple Leafs are playing each other tonight. Anaheim allows the most shots in the league and has the worst team save percentage. Toronto has been finding the net with ease recently.

Maple Leafs first period moneyline is a way of backing the Leafs without having to worry about the massive juice that the regular money line carries. Anaheim's opponents are 6-2-3 on the first-period moneylines over the past 10 games.
