The Columbus Blue Jackets and the Toronto Maple Leafs meet in NHL action from the Scotiabank Arena on Tuesday night. Let’s dive into the odds, matchup history and make a prediction for this game.

Odds

Toronto is a -365 home favorite while Columbus is a +300 road underdog. The total for this game is set at 7 goals.

Matchup History

Columbus’ 4-3 win back on February 11, 2023, snapped Toronto’s two-game win streak in this head-to-head matchup.

Trends

Columbus is 17-41 in their last 58 games overall and 12-41 in their last 53 road games while the over is 5-0 in their last 5 Tuesday games. Toronto is 28-9 in their last 37 games against the Metropolitan division and 56-24 in their last 80 home games while the over is 8-2-1 in their last 11 games against the Eastern Conference.

Pick

I’m on the over here. I think Toronto has a ton of offensive success in this game that they may not have had against Detroit, but I’m also not trusting Toronto in a spot where I could easily see the Leafs starting a backup goaltender. I’m looking at a game where we see 7, 8 or maybe even 9 goals here. Give me the over.
