Spreadsheet Plays 10-2:
Flyers -.5 (+119) -- 1*
Flyers -1.5 (+210) -- .5*
Leafs @ Flyers O5.5 (-135) -- 1*
Last year Leafs were 4-5 in B2B situations (not too bad). However, when those games were on the road they were 2-4. Also, teams that won the first road game of b2b road games went on to lose the second road game 65% of the time. Side note, out of the Leafs 5 losses last year in B2B games, 4 of them came by 2 goals or more (hence why i'm taking a shot at the Flyers -1.5).
In regards to totals, 6 of the 9 Leafs B2B games last year went O5.5 goals.
Normal Plays 10-2:
Redwings -.5 (-115) -- 1*
