boston - toronto will be epic
full of meh otherwise, though
Both Boston and Toronto haven't had the best of starts to the season.
Boston, a team known for it's defense, has given up 3.23 goals a game this season. Boston has shut out back-to-back teams; however, it has scored just 5 goals combined in those games and 7 total in its last 4. It has dropped 3 of its last 4 on the road.
Toronto, a team know for it's offense, is struggling to score, in particular with only six goals from it's bottom six this year. They also struggle to score against Boston, having only 17 goals against them in the last 10 matchups. This looks a whole lot like; a team that is struggling to score goals this year, against the team they struggle to score against the most, while missing their best goal scorer.
Odds makers have Toronto winning, with an overunder of 6....
I'd take the under, and have doubts Toronto can overcome their cryptonite team.
