Toronto Maple Leafs
· 2026-06-29
The Toronto Maple Leafs are on a L7 streak, currently standing 15th in the Eastern Conference with a 32-36 record as of June 29, 2026.
The team needs a win to break their losing streak and improve their standing in the conference.
The St. Louis Blues are on a three-game winning streak and have a 9-1-2 record over their last 12 outings.
Matthew Knies will be crucial in helping the Leafs break through the Blues' defense, having recorded six goals and 13 points in 16 games since the Olympic break.
His ice time has increased significantly, rising from 16:29 per game in February to 19:20 in March.
The moneyline odds are Maple Leafs +125 and Blues -145, while the puck line odds are Maple Leafs +1.5 (-200) and Blues -1.5 (+165).
The over/under odds are Over 5.5 (-125) and Under 5.5 (+105).
John Tavares and Matias Maccelli have also been consistent producers, with Tavares finding the score sheet in four straight games and Maccelli doing so in nine of his last 14.
The Under is 7-0 in St. Louis' last seven games, making it a challenging task for the Leafs to score.
And the Leafs will need to capitalize on their power play opportunities to take the lead.
But the Blues' defense has been stingy, allowing few goals in their recent games.
So the Leafs will need to come up with a strong strategy to break through the Blues' defense.
The game is expected to be closely contested, with both teams looking to win and improve their standing in the conference.
