Scouting report
Sprinkle's read:SJ +1.5 puck line★★★
A dog that keeps it close
San Jose has stayed within a goal in two of their last five, and the puck line pays you for a one-goal loss.
The number
At +1.5 a regulation loss by one still cashes; only a two-goal defeat, empty-netter included, beats it.
The decider
Askarov is the weaker net by a wide margin right now — stopping about nine of ten, a touch under his baseline — so San Jose's side of the scoreboard is the one likely to move.
The context
Both clubs are losing, but they are losing differently: Toronto's games are track meets, San Jose's are quiet. This bet is really a question of which pattern holds. San Jose is putting 27.0 shots a game on net and finishing 9.7% of them.
Situational
San Jose is on the second night of a back-to-back; Toronto is on the second night of a back-to-back — a notch toward the under.
What breaks this
Their last meeting went at a 4-goal pace. Askarov has been the weak link; another soft night sinks it.
