This is a 10* on TORONTO

St. Louis, the defending Stanley Cup Champions, started the season with a disappointing overtime loss to Washington on Opening Night. But they bounced back three days later to defeat Dallas by the same score of 3-2. They are now set to play on the road for the first time against a Toronto team that won its first two games before losing here at home to Montreal Saturday, 6-5. That was a rough loss for the Maple Leafs considering they led 4-1 going into the third period. It wound up going into a shootout and that's when they eventually fell. The Blues rallied with two third period goals to beat Dallas, so they easily could be 0-2 while the Leafs could easily be 3-0 right now. The Montreal game was the second in back to back nights, so maybe that explains Toronto's failure down the stretch. Whatever the reason was, look for them to come out motivated on Monday. This is a bit of a revenge game as they've lost all four games with St. Louis the last two years and 14 of the last 19 home games against them. The Leafs are doing an excellent job getting the puck on the net, averaging 36 shots and 4.7 goals per game. They win here. Play on TORONTO
