Toronto looks quite decent. Of course, the team is capable of more, but its situation is quite normal now. Thus, the Maple Leafs are in third position in the Atlantic Division standings and fifth in the East. They have 84 points, and have every chance to go even higher. Also on the previous day, Toronto beat Montreal 3:2 and Philadelphia (6:2).

Almost the same results in the current campaign shows the Carolina Hurricanes. The Hurricanes look great and with 86 points are located on the third line in the standings of the Atlantic Division and on the fifth in the table of the East. The Hurricanes have also been performing well lately, with four wins in five meetings. The day before, after a 0:1 loss to the Rangers, they managed to defeat Florida 4:0.

Carolina and Toronto are spending the season at about the same level. Both teams are good, and there are minimal complaints about them. But still, in their face-to-face battle, we suggest favouring the Hurricanes. The fact is that the visitors have been looking better lately - a great defensive game and six wins in eight games speak for themselves. The Hurricanes also won the last two face-offs, so we expect them to win (including overtime and shootout) now.
