Logan Cooley has seven goals and an assist in his last five games, and he scored Sunday again in a 6-3 loss at Philadelphia with the extra attacker on the ice. Utah scored twice on the power play in a span of 1:07 in the third period of that game. The Mammoth lead the NHL with 18 power-play goals through 15 games. Toronto’s penalty kill ranks second in the NHL at 91.1 percent, and Utah’s own kill is fifth-worst at 68.8 percent. The Maple Leafs have scored 60 goals in 16 games, 3.8 per game. Utah is scoring 3.6 per game, sixth in the league, and defenseman Mikhail Sergachev is on a seven-game point streak. John Marino is on injured reserve, and Utah has allowed 25 goals in the six games he has missed. Utah won the first meeting of the season 5-4 on October 13. Sergei Bobrovsky is set to start in net for Toronto, according to Toronto Sun writer Terry Koshan. He is 3-5-2 in 10 starts, with an .885 save percentage and a 3.29 goals-against average. Thirty-one of the 33 goals he has allowed came at even strength, where his save percentage is .870. Both Utah goalies are at .890 or better there, and I make the Mammoth the right side on the moneyline tonight.
