MON Canadiens vs TOR Maple Leafs Prediction: the Maple Leafs had a quality preseason

Prediction for the NHL match which will take place on October 10. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Montreal spent last season frankly badly and finished in only 15th position in the East standings. It's unlikely that the Canadiens are going to make any progress in this campaign, as they didn't do much in the offseason in terms of signings. And in terms of play, the team failed in the preseason, as they had only two wins and four losses in six games. The day before, it was 3:4 and 2:4 against Ottawa.

Toronto, in turn, failed to pass the first round of the playoffs last season. In general, there were not many questions for the Maple Leafs in the regular season, but they lost to Boston in the first round of the playoffs, and in the seventh game. As usual, the Maple Leafs have the highest ambitions for the season, and the roster is just as good. After two losses in the preseason, Toronto won four times, and the day before they beat Detroit (2:0 and 3:2).

It's no coincidence that experts of bookmaker companies consider Toronto to be the favorite in the upcoming battle. The Maple Leafs had a quality preseason, during it, by the way, twice beat just Montreal. Toronto has also beaten the Canadiens in five previous games at the Bell Center. And now we expect the guests to win banally.
