The Toronto Maple Leafs better be up for Tuesday’s encounter as they welcome one of the league’s most in-form teams when the Dallas Stars’ wagon rolls into Scotiabank Arena (7 p.m. ET, ESPN+).
The Stars clearly didn’t overindulge over Christmas, as they lost for the first time in eight games against the Ottawa Senators on Sunday. They’ve also improved markedly on the road, finally living up to their Stanley Cup odds hype.
The Maple Leafs have lost two in a row after winning five straight, and I expect Craig Berube’s squad to be the best version of themselves in our Stars vs. Maple Leafs betting prediction and player prop picks.
NHL odds via our best NHL betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale.
It piques my interest anytime I see the Maple Leafs as home underdogs.
That tells us a lot about the quality and form of the visiting Stars. While there’s no getting away from the Dallas wagon rolling confidently into Scotiabank Arena, let’s not forget the Maple Leafs have the eighth-best home points percentage (.680).
And it’s only recently their points percentage at Scotiabank Arena dipped to eighth. In the weeks prior, they were consistently among the five best at home.
A disconcerting trend is developing for the Maple Leafs, which I’m sure Berube has already impressed upon his team. They are 5-0-0 in the last five against teams that aren’t in a playoff position and 1-4-0 versus those that are.
Tuesday’s contest against one of the NHL’s elite provides an ideal opportunity for Berube’s squad to set the record straight.
Joseph Woll, who has won his last four home starts, will get the nod. He’s played some of his best hockey in Toronto, and I expect another strong outing from the team’s current No. 1. It’s been almost three months since the Maple Leafs have lost three in a row, another reason I’m backing them to prevail.
Despite the Stars winning five of the last six in enemy barns, they still have just the 12th-best road points percentage (.550). That shows how abject they were prior to their latest fruitful run.
In addition, Dallas has lost three in a row in Toronto and struggles to play its best there.

NHL picks made Tuesday; odds subject to change.
Like most teammates, Robertson has been much better since the Christmas break. He is shooting more, especially on the road, as he’s stepped up his play. That’s resulted in hitting the Over in three of the last four and five of the previous six in enemy rinks.
A winning $10 bet will profit $9.43.
Best odds: -106 via Betway | Implied probability: 51.46%

There was a time you couldn’t find a shot prop for Nylander set under 3.5. The 2.5 total shows a gradual and consistent decrease in his shot production, and it’s taking a toll on his scoring production. Nylander has just one goal in his last 10 games, a stark decline from what we saw earlier in the campaign.
He has only hit this Over once in the last four games. However, before the last two Unders on home ice, Nylander had a five-game consecutive run of registering at least three shots.
Nylander almost always gets his looks against the Stars, whom he’s had at least three shots against in eight straight.
