T.M. Selection: Toronto Maple Leafs.

I like the Toronto Maple Leafs to win this game against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday. The Leafs have looked great in this series and even though they are going to game 7 here, it feels like this series should already be over. They looked really good in their most recent game, losing 4-3 in OT in Tampa but they clearly looked like the better team in that game and there were some bad calls by the refs which didn't help them at all. I still think the Leafs are the better team though and they have shown to be 1 of the strongest in the East at the moment. I think they will close out this series on home ice here and finally break their playoff curse over the years. The Leafs have been scoring a lot in this series, scoring 3+ goals in every game of the series which is something that the Lightning haven't even done, scoring 2 goals in 1 of the games and even getting shut out in the 1st game of this series. The Leafs have even shown their resiliency in some of these games since they have erased multi-goal deficits multiple times so if they get behind in this game they will come back. I think they are going to take an early lead here though and I expect them to score so many goals that the Lightning just won't be able to come back in this game. I think the Leafs are the stronger team and I expect them to be motivated here to end their curse and kick out the 2 time defending Stanley Cup champions. I like the Leafs to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Leafs.
