Maple Leafs vs. Jets Live Betting - NHL Props

The Toronto Maple Leafs have staked their claim atop the Atlantic Division standings with six wins in their first nine games. With the arrival of John Tavares from the New York Islanders this past off season it stood to figure that the Leafs would be among the top offensive teams in the NHL. Of major concern is a back end that is loose and goaltending that is unreliable. As expected the Winnipeg Jets are one of the top teams in the Central Division and are in quite a battle with the Colorado Avalanche and Nashville Predators in what could be the best division in the NHL.

The Jets will be a slight favorite based on their strong home ice advantage that is among the most valuable in the league. There may also be some action on the over based on both teams ability to score goals and the Maple Leafs subpar defense.

The Leafs were embarrassed at home last week in a key showdown vs. the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-0 and then lost at home to the St. Louis Blues 4-1 in what seemed to have a hangover affect. Winnipeg is coming off a 5-3 home payout over the Arizona Coyotes.
