Here’s our pick for Game 1 between the Lightning and Maple Leafs.
Playoffs for the second year in a row and, once again, it’s the Leafs that are favored to win the best-of-7 series. The Leafs are the league’s richest team and have all the talent in the world, but they’ve not advanced past Round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs since 2004.
The tenor before this series is starkly similar to what we saw last spring when these two teams battled for seven games. Nonetheless, it’s Toronto that will enter Game 1 as a -155 favorite to win the series and a -164 favorite to win the curtain-raiser on Tuesday night.There is no team that is more difficult to handicap in hockey than the Tampa Bay Lightning.
But the other side of the argument is that the Lightning struggled in the last 10 weeks of the regular season because they’re just not a great hockey team anymore.
