Toronto Maple Leafs (37-26-10) at Columbus Blue Jackets (35-23-15)
Friday, August 07, 2020 at 8:00 pm
At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Toronto Maple Leafs over Columbus. The Maple Leafs haven't won a playoff series since 2004. And, unless they win the next two games vs. Columbus, their playoff drought will continue. At the very least, I expect the Maple Leafs to force a decisive Game 5. Tonight, they'll look to bounce back from a 4-3 defeat in Game 3 -- a game in which they led 3-0 midway through the second period. Unfortunately, they have up three 3rd period goals, and that was "all she wrote." The Leafs are now 2-5 their last seven games. But Toronto's a super 40-21 if it's lost at least 4 of its previous 6 games. Take the Maple Leafs. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
