Toronto Maple Leafs - San Jose Sharks: Form Analysis
The Sharks were finally able to put an end to their three game losing streak with a 4-0 victory over Montreal last night. Despite the impressive display, it is only San Jose’s second win in their last seven games as the team continues to fall down the standings. The Sharks will now have to deal with the prospect of facing one of the NHL’s best teams on their home ice while also playing on back-to-back nights. They’ll be at a disadvantage against a Leafs team whose last game resulted in a 4-2 away win against the Red Wings on Monday. Toronto has won four in a row as well as seven of their last 10 games. The Maple Leafs have seven wins from their 12 home games so far this season while the Sharks have picked up six wins from their 11 away games.

Toronto Maple Leafs & San Jose Sharks Squad Analysis
The Leafs have suffered a raft of injuries this season, particularly to their defense, which has made their recent winning run even more impressive. No fewer than four players miss out, including Muzzin, Rielly, Benn and Brodie, which has forced Toronto to turn to some of their young prospects in the meantime. Luckily for the Maple Leafs, the youngsters have stepped up to the plate and have Toronto within the discussion for the best teams in the Eastern Conference. The Sharks will have to do without the services of goalkeeper James Reimer, who was placed on the IR on Monday.

Our Toronto Maple Leafs vs San Jose Sharks Prediction
We’re going to back the Toronto Maple Leafs to win the game and cover the -1.5 spread as our pick for this one. With the Sharks having only one over their last four games and coming off having just played last night, San Jose are likely to struggle here against an in-form Toronto team. Back Auston Matthews and crew to win their fifth straight in this game in what should be a relatively comfortable victory.
