Randy’s Free Pick

The Calgary Flames are capable of a bounce back performance, and they'll up for this one against a rival, but the Maple Leafs are simply in better form, and they've been a team I've been backing a ton this season. The price is reasonable. Give me the Toronto Maple Leafs, given the form of both clubs.
