Columbus Blue Jackets vs Toronto Maple Leafs Prediction: Toronto is good in the new season

Prediction for the NHL Columbus Blue Jackets vs Toronto Maple Leafs match which will take place on October 23rd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Columbus has had a very even start to the season. Yes, two wins in five games is a good indicator for the Blue Jackets, who were terrible last season. They did manage to beat Colorado 6:4 and Buffalo 6:4, but they also suffered three defeats, all of which came at the end of regulation time. That leaves the team with just four points, but Columbus fans should not worry too much about their playoff hopes.

You have to give Toronto credit for its start to the season. The Maple Leafs have recorded four wins and two defeats in six games. All of their wins have come in three periods, which can't help but please Maple Leafs fans. The day before, Toronto had a great game against Tampa Bay, beating them 5:2. This is the team's second day of back-to-back games.

Toronto is good in the new season, and there is no point in arguing about that. The team has always lacked stability, but the Maple Leafs have not had any problems with that, and we note their incredible defensive play. What's more, they're coming off an impressive 5:2 win over the mighty Tampa Bay the day before, which should give them a boost.
