The Toronto Maple Leafs are the hottest thing on ice and will seek their 7th straight victory tonight when they visit the Saddledome for a date with the Calgary Flames. The Flames are also on a roll, ripping off 4 in a row, but will be playing back-to-back games and that is not a position you want to be in when the Leafs come to town. Toronto is almost as good on the road as they are at home, with a record of 13-6-2, and will be well-rested after Monday’s win over the Carolina Panthers. They also have Auston Matthews, who has been off the charts, notching another 2 goals on Monday which now brings his total on the season to 31. The Leafs are 4-1 in the last 5 meetings with the Flames overall and 4-0 in their last 4 trips to Calgary. The Leafs are hot, ride them ’til they’re not.
