Maple Leafs vs Sharks Prediction: Back Toronto to Cover the Puck Line

Maple Leafs vs Sharks Prediction: Why the Leafs Are the Best Bet Tonight

The Toronto Maple Leafs head to San Jose for a Thursday night clash with the struggling Sharks, and we’ve got your Maple Leafs vs Sharks prediction locked in. After a 7-2 dismantling of the Flyers, led by a two-goal performance from William Nylander, Toronto is flying high — and this is a prime spot to back them big.

With a 43-25-3 record and a solid 20-12-2 performance on the road, the Leafs are built to win games like this — and win them convincingly. Auston Matthews and John Tavares continue to produce at a high level, while the team has gone 16-4-2 in one-goal games, often finding ways to close.

San Jose, sitting at 19-42-9, is trending in the opposite direction. The Sharks allow over 3.3 goals per game over their last 10 and are just 11-22-2 at home. While Tyler Toffoli and William Eklund show occasional sparks, the team simply can’t compete with top-tier offenses.

💰 Best Bet: Maple Leafs -1.5 (+105)

Our Maple Leafs vs Sharks prediction: Toronto wins big. They’ll want revenge after San Jose squeaked out a shootout win earlier this season — and they’re catching the Sharks at the perfect time.
