The Toronto Maple Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings will clash tonight at Little Caesars Arena in the Motor City. The 18-9-2 Leafs have won 2 straight and 7 of their last 10. Toronto doesn’t score a lot, averaging 2.93 goals per game, but they don’t have to. The Leafs are surrendering an average of only 2.55 goals per game which is one of the lowest in the league. The 11-14-4 Red Wings score even less, averaging only 2.51 goals per game, and are allowing an average of 3.17. Not good. Toronto should take care of business tonight. They won the first meeting this year, 3-1, and Detroit is just 1-6 in their last 7.
