The Atlanta Thrashers have lost five of their last eight, including two of their last three at home. They have not defended well vs. anyone during the eight-game stretch where they have allowed 27 goals scored against them for an average of 3.4 per contest. That could spell their doom here tonight vs. a Maple Leafs team that has been finding the net quite frequently in their last seven games where they have lit the lamp 24 times for over 3 a contest. The Leafs have proven to be a tough out after scoring 5 or more in their previous game. Toronto comes in with a 6-2 mark after a 5+ goal performance in their previous game. This has also been a good spot for the Maple Leafs as they own a 9-4 mark vs. the Thrashers in the last 13 trips here. Play Toronto in this one.
