This is a 10* RED DRAGON on the Toronto Maple Leafs.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS stats:

As note that Toronto is 8-2 (+5.7 units) this year after a win by two goals or more, while Carolina is just 14-22 (-10 units) in its last 26 following two days of rest.

The bottom line: The Leafs have been better on the road than at home this year. Look for TORONTO to come in focused on the task at hand.
