Leg 2: Under 6.5 Total Goals (-128)

Three straight Bruins games and four of their last six have gone under the number.
That includes when these teams met earlier this week, which saw Boston post a 4-1 win.
Three of the last four Maple Leafs games have also gone under the number.
With a potential first-round playoff matchup looming between these teams, it’s not difficult to expect a tight-checking, low-scoring affair with neither team giving much of anything away.
There’s some slight juice on the under 6.5 goals at -128, but it’s worth the squeeze in this matchup.

Leg 3: Brad Marchand to Record 3+ Shots on Goal (-118)

Brad Marchand continues to be the type of leader you want on your side in these big games.
Rivalry matchups bring out the best in Marchand, which has seen him tally 50 points in 52 career games vs. Toronto.
Marchand has been generating plenty of offensive chances lately, including tallying at least three shots on goal in four of his last five games.
On Monday night in Toronto, Marchand recorded three shots on goal.
With the consistency that Marchand has brought to the table with his shots on goal, we’re comfortable backing him to record 3+ again tonight at -118.
