Leg 1: Toronto Maple Leafs Moneyline (+108)

The Bruins and Maple Leafs will kick off their opening round best-of-seven on Saturday night from TD Garden.
The Bruins have dominated the season series of late and posted seven straight wins. Before that, the Maple Leafs had won four in a row.
Neither team ended the regular season exceptionally well and will be looking to turn the page on Saturday.
Even with the Bruins’ recent success over Toronto, there’s not much separating these teams on the ice.
The Maple Leafs added depth scoring for this type of series, giving them an edge in this matchup.
With Toronto listed in plus-money on the moneyline at +108 for Game 1, that’s a number we feel comfortable backing.

Leg 2: Under 5.5 Total Goals (+102)

It won’t be a surprise if goals are hard to come by in this series for multiple reasons.
Low-scoring games have been the story when these teams have faced off lately.
Four of the last five matchups between the Bruins and Maple Leafs have seen five or fewer total goals scored.
This doesn’t factor in the higher stakes of this matchup, which helps present value for the under 5.5 at +102.

Leg 3: William Nylander to Record Anytime Goal (+180)

Many Maple Leaf fans are still waiting for some of their stars to put their stamp on postseason hockey.
One name you can’t include in that conversation is William Nylander, who’s continued to be the most consistent.
Nylander tallied 98 points during the regular season.
Nylander has 40 points in 50 career playoff games and is coming off recording ten points in 11 games last year.
Nylander has substantial value for Game 1 to find the back of the net at +180.
