Hockey Betting on the Toronto Maple Leafs at SBG Global

The Leafs didn’t make the playoffs but they were able to steal enough wins in online hockey betting to get above the break even mark. How will Toronto fare in hockey betting in 2008-2009?

Hockey betting gamblers know that the Leafs may be without Mats Sundin this season. The long-time Leaf might be elsewhere when the season begins and that would hurt the Leafs offensively according to online hockey betting experts. The team will definitely be without Darcy Tucker and Kyle Wellwood who have moved on according to hockey betting information. The Leafs did sign Matt Stajan in the off-season according to hockey betting information.

Toronto had one of the better goalies in hockey last season in Vesa Toskala. He had a .904 save percentage and three shutouts last season according to hockey betting stats. Hockey betting experts see that Toskala is helped by two excellent defensemen in Tomas Kaberle and Pavel Kubina. The team lost Bryan McCabe in the off-season according to hockey betting information so they need Carlo Colaiacovo to have a good year.

The Leafs don’t have much offense and the only player besides Sundin that came through last season was Jason Blake. He will be needed a lot more this season according to online hockey betting experts if Sundin does not come back. The team added Nik Hagman who is a good two-way player according to online hockey betting experts. The team could also use another good season out of Mark Bell. Other players that need to up their production according to hockey betting experts are Alex Steen and Jamal Mayers.

The Leafs have made some definite changes in the off-season according to hockey betting information including hiring new head coach Ron Wilson. He should have the team playing hard every night and the Leafs could be worth a shot in hockey betting on certain occasions. Last year they made their followers a little bit of money, despite the fact that they missed the playoffs.
