Maple Leafs become the favourite to win the Eastern Conference | Toronto Today

Not even the sharpest oddsmaker would’ve pegged the Maple Leafs to win seven straight on the road a month ago, but Sheldon Keefe’s team capped off a 4-0 trip with an emphatic win in Anaheim last night.

Toronto is now the favourite to represent the East in the Stanley Cup Final at +375, and will host the Avalanche on Wednesday in, dare I say, a Stanley Cup preview?

You can still get Jack Campbell to win the Vezina at +1000, even after the best November for a goaltender in franchise history.

It’s a different story for the Raptors after a fourth quarter collapse to the Celtics on Sunday.

Toronto fell to 9-12 this season and is now hanging out in the Eastern Conference basement with the likes of the Cavaliers and Pacers.

They’ll host a Memphis team missing Ja Morant on Tuesday and hope to finally have OG Anunoby make his long-awaited return to the lineup.
