Leg 1: Toronto Maple Leafs Moneyline (+114)

The Bruins and Maple Leafs are set to play Game 2 of their best-of-seven on Saturday night from TD Garden.
The Bruins dominated the season series and have posted eight straight wins after Saturday night’s Game 1.
Neither team ended the regular season exceptionally well, but Boston came out firing on all cylinders to start the series.
It’s hard to envision the Maple Leafs falling into the same Bruins trap for Game 2. They need to be more disciplined and find ways to utilize their scoring depth.
The Leafs need to conquer their demons, and there’s value in backing them to win tonight on the road and making this a tighter series, which is what we initially expected.

Leg 2: Under 5.5 Total Goals (+102)

It won’t be a surprise if goals are hard to come by in this series. Game 1 opened with six total goals.
Low-scoring games have been the story when these teams have faced off lately.
Four of the last six matchups between the Bruins and Maple Leafs have seen five or fewer total goals scored.
The Maple Leafs must make the appropriate adjustments tonight on both sides of the puck.
Boston’s goaltending was strong in Game 1, and we expect a similar story for both teams in Game 2.

Leg 3: Auston Matthews to Record Anytime Goal (-125)

The narrative of the Maple Leafs star players falling asleep at the wheel in the postseason has continued.
It’s no secret that Auston Matthews has an essential role in the success of the Maple Leafs.
Matthews opened Game 1 with five shots on goal and three hits, but he has to find the scoresheet.
Matthews is the top goal scorer in the world for a reason, and he’ll be needed tonight to get this group back on track. Even with a juiced price tag, there’s value in him scoring at -125.
