Auston Matthews leads Toronto with 32 goals, Mitchell Marner has 39 assists and John Tavares has 121 shots on goal.

The Jets are 6-2 in their last 8 road games and 7-2 in their last 9 Thursday games. The Maple Leafs are 4-1 in their last 5 games playing on 1 days rest and 9-3 in their last 12 overall. The under is 3-1-1 in Jets last 5 overall. The under is 5-2-2 in Maple Leafs last 9 overall. The Jets are 3-7 in the last 10 meetings. The favorite is 20-9 in the last 29 meetings. The road team is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have gotten their act together as of late and this is a tough spot to bet against them with the rest advantage. The Maple Leafs have also won four of the six meetings this season against the Jets. However, the Winnipeg Jets are playing too well to turn down with this plus money, winning eight of their last 12 games and have proven they can win on the road this week. The Maple Leafs should be favored on their home ice, but the Jets and the plus money is where the value is at.
