The Los Angeles Kings are a perfect 3-0 on the road but that will be in jeopardy tonight when they travel to Scotiabank Arena to face the Toronto Maple Leafs. Are the Leafs a true Stanley Cup contender? The answer is yes. Toronto is 5-2-1 overall and 3-1-1 on their home ice. They have arguably the best player in the NHL, Auston Matthews, and tonight Joseph Woll is confirmed to be between the pipes. Woll has been outstanding with a record of 3-1-0, a GAA of only 1.33 and a .961 SV%. The 4-2-2-Kings will begin a 4-game road trip and the Leafs are not the team you want to face for game 1. LA has not fared well in Toronto, going 1-4 in their last 5, and the home team usually wins between these two clubs.
