Maple Leafs vs. Devils Prediction

I’m on the over here. Toronto’s goaltending has stumbled in recent games, and the Devils for me have goaltending that’s still hard to trust from a name-brand perspective. That being said, both offensive units are still loaded and can go off for 4-5 goals a night. Historically this has been a high-scoring matchup, and I think we have another one brewing here. Give me the over.
