Saturday NHL odds roundup: Maple Leafs are road favourites - Sportsnet.ca

The Toronto Maple Leafs will be trying to put the brakes on a two-game losing streak when they visit the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday night as -135 road favourites on the NHL odds at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.

Toronto squandered a third-period lead on its way to a 4-3 overtime loss to the visiting Washington Capitals on Tuesday, and has now fallen to defeat in five of seven outings going into Saturday night’s matchup at the Wells Fargo Center.

The Maple Leafs’ swoon has featured three straight losses on the road in which they potted just seven total goals. But despite their recent struggles, the Maple Leafs continue to reside among the favourites on the Stanley Cup odds at +900.

Jeff Marek and Elliotte Friedman talk to a lot of people around the hockey world, and then they tell listeners all about what they’ve heard and what they think about it.

The Flyers enter Saturday’s action pegged as +110 home underdogs but have been steady on home ice, posting wins in their past two games and going 4-1-0 in five home dates this season. Philadelphia has also dominated in recent home dates with the Maple Leafs, claiming victory in each of their past four, with three of those victories coming by a single goal.

Saturday’s NHL action kicks off early in the day as the Edmonton Oilers visit the Penguins as +145 underdogs at online sports betting sites. The Oilers are coming off a 4-1 victory in Columbus as a +130 wager on Wednesday to end a four-game road losing streak, but have failed to record consecutive wins on the road since winning three-straight during the second week of the season.

The Penguins are coming off a lopsided 7-1 win over Philadelphia as -145 home chalk on Tuesday night, and have now posted wins in four of five home dates. Pittsburgh has also dominated the Oilers over the past decade, posting wins in 14 of 17 meetings since 2007, and holding Edmonton to a single goal in each of their past two visits to PPG Paints Arena.

Elsewhere on Saturday, the Montreal Canadiens will try to extend their season-high winning streak to four games as they wrap up a three-game road trip in Dallas as +105 underdogs.

As well, the Ottawa Senators look to record their first road win of the season as they visit the Boston Bruins as +285 underdogs, while the Calgary Flames visit the Blue Jackets as -140 chalk. The Winnipeg Jets will travel to Vegas to face the Golden Knights as +175 underdogs.
