Vegas - Toronto: NHL match betting tip and bets

Current form

Vegas has gained excellent form, and it shows itself best on the home arena, where it has not lost for three matches in a row, and all of them ended in regular time. In six matches, the team suffered only one defeat from Los Angeles (2:5). Goalkeeper Samsonov showed a terrible game, reflecting only 73% of shots, which was the main reason for the failure. But the knights quickly rehabilitated themselves in front of the fans and regained their lost points in the next match, winning a landslide victory over Chicago (7-5). Striker Barbashev showed a great game, scoring a double and giving two assists.

Continuing to play at home, the Golden Knights faced New Jersey and this time they played much more reliably defensively, not even allowing the opponent to score, winning dry (2-0). The goal was defended by Hill, who played much more reliably than his teammate. It is worth noting that Vegas is currently on the third line in the Western Conference table, however, it is not possible to compete for the leadership, since the gap from Winnipeg is too large and amounts to 10 points. But the team has excellent chances to get ahead of Dallas and climb to the second position.

Disqualifications and injuries

Karlsson, Lehner, Schwindt and Theodor will definitely not play in the upcoming match.

Current form

Toronto has been in great shape for a long time and even managed to earn a winning streak of five matches in a row, but lately the team has been having problems more and more often. The Maple Leafs played on the road, where they wrested Victoria from Boston with great difficulty, equalizing the score less than a minute before the final whistle and snatching Victoria in overtime (5-4). A similar situation arose in the match with Pittsburgh, in which the defensive line of the leafs played too unreliably and allowed the opponent to consistently create and realize dangerous moments, which almost led to failure. It came to overtime, where it was difficult to achieve success (6:5).

Returning to the home arena, the team should have easily dealt with the obvious outsider in the person of San Jose, but this did not happen. There were difficulties with the realization of moments in the attack, and as a result, I had to suffer an insulting defeat in a shootout (2:3), which came as a huge surprise to many. Despite all these problems, the club continues to remain on the second line in the Eastern Conference table, and the gap from the leader in Washington is seven points.

Hakanpaa remains in the infirmary at Toronto. Lorenz is also in question.
